BLT Pizza Wedges
Who says a BLT needs to be a sandwich? We took one of America’s favorite sandwiches and turned it into a light lunch or appetizer.
Ingredients:
1 (6-inch) whole-wheat pita bread round with pocket
Nonstick cooking spray
2 slices turkey bacon, crisp-cooked and finely chopped
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons fat-free or light mayonnaise
1 cup chopped or finely shredded iceberg lettuce
1/2 of a plum tomato, seeded and chopped
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh basil (optional)
1/2 teaspoon grated Parmesan cheese
Freshly ground black pepper (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 400° F. Split pita bread around its perimeter with sharp knife to form 2 pita bread halves. Place on baking sheet, inside sides up. Lightly spray with cooking spray. Bake in preheated oven about 5 minutes or until lightly toasted.
- Meanwhile, stir together bacon and mayonnaise in small bowl. Add lettuce, tomato and, if desired, basil. Toss until combined.
- Spoon lettuce mixture on inside sides of toasted pita bread rounds. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. If desired, season to taste with pepper and carefully cut into wedges to serve.
