A PIZZA RECIPE (healthy, of course)

Do you looooove pizza? Ha, who are we kidding...of course you do! I do, I mean...I really love pizza. I could probably sit and eat an entire medium sized pizza all by myself, now that's just unhealthy- I know.
SO, while everyone else was sleeping I found a super delicious, super healthy, super easy pizza recipe.

These pizzas are a perfect dinner when you're starving after workout and you have all that homework looming over your head. Plus, they're fast. Either you (or your loving parents) can whip them up quick.

Whole Wheat Pita Pizza

Total Time: 35 min

Prep Time: 25 min

Cook Time: 10 min

Serves: 4 (and who are we kidding, if you just swam 6,000 yards this recipe only serves 2)

Ingredients:

• 1 teaspoon(s) olive oil
• 1 medium red onion, sliced
• 2 clove(s) garlic, crushed with press
• 1/4 teaspoon(s) crushed red pepper
• 8 ounce(s) broccoli florets, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
• 1/4 cup(s) water
• 1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
• 1 can(s) (15- to 19-ounce) garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 cup(s) part-skim ricotta cheese
• 4 6-inch whole-wheat pitas, each split horizontally in half
• 1/2 cup(s) grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 medium plum tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch chunks

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In nonstick 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add onion and cook 7 to 10 minutes or until golden, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and crushed red pepper, and cook 30 seconds, stirring. Add broccoli flowerets, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup water; heat to boiling. Reduce heat to medium and cook, covered, 5 minutes or until broccoli is tender-crisp.
2. Meanwhile, in small bowl, with potato masher or fork, mash beans with ricotta and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt until almost smooth.
3. Arrange pita halves on 2 large cookie sheets. Bake 3 minutes or until lightly toasted. Spread bean mixture on toasted pitas. Top with broccoli mixture and sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake 7 to 10 minutes long or until heated through. Sprinkle with tomatoes to serve.
