Steps:

  • Halve the pita loaves horizontally to form 4 rounds, arrange the rounds, rough sides up, on a baking sheet, and brush the tops lightly with the additional oil. Sprinkle the rounds with salt to taste and toast them in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 5 minutes, or until they are pale golden and crisp. Sprinkle half the mozzarella onto the rounds and bake the rounds for 1 minute, or until the mozzarella is melted. While the rounds are toasting, in a large skillet cook the onion and the garlic in the remaining 3 tablespoons oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until the onion is softened, add the bell peppers, and cook the mixture, stirring, for 4 minutes, or until the peppers are softened. Add the zucchini, the mushrooms, the oregano, and salt and pepper to taste and cook the mixture, stirring, for 2 minutes, or until the zucchini is softened. Stir in half the remaining mozzarella and divide the mixture among the rounds, mounding it slightly. Top the rounds with the remaining mozzarella, the tomato, the basil, and the Parmesan and broil the rounds under a preheated broiler about 4 inches from the heat for 3 minutes, or until the cheeses are melted and bubbly.

two 6-inch whole-wheat pita loaves
3 tablespoons olive oil plus addition for brushing the pita rounds
1 1/3 cups grated mozzarella
1 small red onion, sliced thin
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 small red bell pepper, sliced thin
1 small green bell pepper, sliced thin
3/4 cup thinly sliced zucchini
4 mushrooms, sliced
1 teaspoon crumbled dried oregano
2/3 cup chopped seeded fresh tomato
3 tablespoons shredded fresh basil leaves
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan

VEGETARIAN MEXICAN PITA

I had a craving for something with rice and black beans one night, and this is what I came up with. I still fiddle with the ingredients some every time I make it, and probably will until I have it "perfected". :) These are wonderful served with steamed corn as well.

  • In a medium bowl, mix together all ingredients for dill yogurt sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  • Wrap a damp paper towel around the pita bread and microwave until just warmed (about 10 seconds per pita). This will make it more malleable and less likely to break.
  • To assemble the sandwiches, layer about 2-3 tablespoons of the hummus, yogurt sauce, and tabbouleh, with some greens, tomato, and carrots, in that order, on each pita. Carefully wrap the pita around the ingredients. If it seems too messy or like it's going to break, wrap it in foil or parchment to keep it together.
