Pita pizzas offer a delightful twist to traditional pizzas, combining the convenience of pita bread with an array of flavorful toppings. Utilizing hummus as a base not only provides a creamy and tangy foundation but also adds a boost of nutrition from chickpeas. Spinach adds a vibrant green hue and a subtly earthy taste, while olives and tomatoes bring a mix of savory, salty, and juicy elements. Finally, a generous sprinkling of cheese adds a gooey, golden layer of indulgence. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy meal or a fun and interactive activity to enjoy with family and friends, pita pizzas with hummus, spinach, olives, tomatoes, and cheese are sure to please.

PITA PIZZAS WITH HUMMUS, SPINACH, OLIVES, TOMATOES & CHEESE
These are inexpensive, easy, quick to put together and can be served room temp or right out of the oven. Cut into wedges like small pizza slices. They never last long and you can really use any toppings. I like to make my own hummus, but it isn't difficult if you want to make your own. But I get a small container which is enough for about 8 pitas for under $3, a roasted red pepper hummus right from the grocery store so why not. Then my favorite toppings are black or kalamata olives, goat or feta cheese, carmelized onions, fresh basil, fresh baby spinach, diced tomato or sundried tomatoes. You can add anything. Just lightly toast in the oven top, cook again for just 5 minutes and done! Slice like a pizza and serve. Great easy treats.

Steps:
- Pitas -- Brush with a little olive oil, salt and pepper on each pita. Lightly toast in a 400 degree oven until slightly brown.
- Top -- Top with hummus, then your favorite toppings. I like olives, baby spinach, tomatoes, feta, a little black pepper and some Italian seasoning. But NOTE -- you can add any of your favorite toppings.
- If you add onions, mushrooms, peppers, zucchini, artichokes, etc., I pan saute lightly first so they are pre-cooked before adding to the pizza. The pizzas are only cooked a few minutes so just have everything ready.
- Bake -- Another 5 minutes in the oven, just to heat everything up and soften the cheese.
- Finish -- Mix the balsamic vinegar and olive oil and just simply drizzle over the top after it comes out of the oven. Perfect finishing touch. Just cut in Pizza slices and serve. I like to use my pizza cutter and 6 slices per pita.
- ENJOY a very simple inexpensive quick appetizer.
