Greek-Style Pita Bread Pizza

This was actually pretty good. I wasn't sure because I had trouble finding the right ingredients (more on that in the notes section). Basically, if you like the individual ingredients, you will like this. Fairly simple to make. 
  • 1 large (9-inch) pita bread
  • 1 Tbsp pesto
  • 1 Tbsp black olive paste
  • 3.5 oz feta cheese, cut into 1/4 inch cubes
  • 3/4 oz kalamata olives
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place the pita bread on a baking sheet. Spread the pesto and olive paste over the bread. Arrange the cheese and olives on top. Bake for 10 minutes, or until crisp. 

NOTES: So I ended up having to play fast and loose with a lot of these ingredients, just based on what I had or could find. I used Nature's Own garlic artisan flats because I couldn't find any large size pita bread anywhere. The recipe book points you to a homemade pesto recipe but we already had a small jar of some store-bought at home so that's what I used. I also used a bruschetta olive spread that included capers and numerous types of olives instead of straight black olive paste because I couldn't find straight black paste/tapenade. And has anyone ever seen a block of feta? The stuff I always see is already crumbled so that's what I went with.
