My March 2021 Calendar Page

 


Sharing my March calendar page with you today.  The quote says:

'It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold; when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade"

Time for pita bread pizza


Son K loves this pita bread pizza I make.  Slather some pizza sauce on pita bread, top with shredded cheese, chopped onions and some slices of Italian salami.  Into the oven at 325F for 9-12 minutes.  We like to add bell peppers and tomatoes, but he prefers his without.

Easy Pita Bread


 

One of my sisters thought I might like to try this recipe for 'Easy Homemade Pita Bread'.  I did find it really easy and have already made it several times.  I used half whole wheat, half white flour.  It was fun to see them puff up in the oven.  The next time I used half a teaspoon of salt instead of a full teaspoon.  I noticed whole wheat needs a cup of water compared to 3/4c in the recipe.

Here are some white flour pitas I made. White flour always tastes better in my mind!
