This is an healthier alternative to bruschetta using pita bread instead of a baguette or french stick. You can either use mayonnaise or cheese spread to mix with the pesto & either tomato slices or diced tomatoes. I use a soft cheese spread, the ones that are sold in triangles, they are really creamy & mix really well with the pesto. Ingredients:
1 pita bread round |
1 teaspoon prepared pesto sauce |
1 teaspoon mayonnaise or 1 teaspoon cream cheese spread |
1 tomatoes, thinly sliced or 1/2 cup chopped grape tomatoes |
2 tablespoons fresh parmesan cheese, grated |
Directions:
1. Combine the pesto & mayonnaise or pesto & cream cheese. ( I do this on the pita to save on dishes).
2. Place or sprinkle tomatoes on top and then sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
3. Place under you griller or broiler and cook until pitas are slightly crisp & cheese is melted.
