Pita Pizza with Spinach, Mushrooms, Onions, and Fresh Tomatoes

This easy pita pizza with spinach, mushrooms, onions, and fresh tomatoes recipe is a quick and tasty lunch or dinner to prepare when you don’t have time to make homemade pizza dough. I topped this pita pizza with shredded mozzarella, some sautéed mushrooms and spinach with garlic, and a few slices of raw onions, and used leftover marinara sauce for the sauce. This pita pizza took less than 10 minutes to bake and was crisp on the bottom and full of flavor. Lastly, I added fresh tomato slices to the top of my pizzas–they look pretty & taste great.
