📝 Ingredients

  • Serving size of cooked shrimp or choice of protein (I used 6oz of cooked shrimp)
  • 1 small multigrain pizza crust (or pita bread if you do not have pizza crust)
  • 3/4 heirloom tomato or Roma tomato cut thinly
  • 1/4 cup reduced fat Feta cheese
  • fresh cilantro and lime (always keep these on hand)
  • 2 roasted green chiles (optional)
  • 1/4 cup sautéed red onions (optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Set oven to 405F.
  2. 2Sautee or grill your onions (or other veggies) in a pan using Kelapo Coconut Oil spray.
  3. 3Slice tomatoes and chiles and any other veggies. Place them evenly on top of your pizza crust or pita bread. Add your grilled onions.
  4. 4Then, add your choice of protein – I used shrimp – in pieces and add the pieces evenly on the pizza crust.
  5. 5Sprinkle feta cheese on top. You can add cilantro but I like the taste of fresh cilantro so I save that until the end.
  6. 6Bake on the oven rack, NOT a baking sheet, for 15-minutes. Remove from the oven and add any extra topping.
  7. 7Devour
