Pita Bread Pizza Recipe
This pizza bread pizza is a delightful way to enjoy pizza quickly and conveniently. Not to mention whole grain pita bread is a great way to have a healthy pizza crust without spending time in the kitchen making healthy dough from scratch.
Whole Grain Pita Bread
While I love to make my own pizza dough, whole grain pita bread that is clean isn’t too hard to find because the ingredients for pita bread are very basic.
Both Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods carry whole grain pita bread that is clean, and I’m sure many other stores do too. Just flip the package over and read the ingredient list.

Just a quick question…..What is the criteria for a Pita Bread to be clean? Is it the calories, the amount of carbs, etc? I do not have access to a whole foods or Trader Joes so I am wondering what I should look for so that I am able to purchase at the local Walmart.
Thank You
Jana – I’m not sure you will find one there. But here is how I read labels at the store: https://www.thegraciouspantry.com/reading-labels-for-clean-eating/
You would want something that says 100% whole wheat or whole grain. If the ingredient list say “wheat flour”, it’s processed. It must have the word “whole” before it. And of course, no added sugars or preservatives.
Why are the pictures on the recipe downloads so enormous? I need to be conservative with my ink and paper but I also like pictures with my recipes. Is there a reason the picture can’t be smaller so the entire document fits on one page? Thank you for sharing all the wonderful recipes.
Bea – I don’t think it’s an option with the print plugin I use. However, if you look at the top of the print pop-up screen, you’ll see a little check box. If you check it, it will remove the photos for printing. Also, anything you click on in that popup window will be removed before printing.
Yum! I think this would be a great recipe that my kids would even enjoy.
I love pizza! It’s by far my favorite food!
I will have to try this. Looks so good! I’ve been using my pita bread for pita chips, but pizza is a great idea!
Natalie – It’s quick and easy! I hope you enjoy it. 🙂
This looks great! Would it work to add a meat such as ham?
Caroline – I haven’t yet found a ham that is actually clean. But yes, you can add whatever meat you enjoy. 🙂
