Pick Your Pocket- Fakin’ Bacon Pita Pizzas
 |
Forgo the pocket for an extra crispy, thin pizza! |
The pita pocket makes a delicious thin crust!
When you crave a personal pizza, you don’t have to rely on the local pizza chain anymore! Whole wheat pita pockets make instant crusts that are nutritious and delicious. If your family rarely agrees on toppings, these are super easy to individualize. Great fun for kids to make their own!
These two varieties were a hit in my house. All the joy of bacon- vegan style!
