Here’s what you’ll need:
| Ingredients | Quantities |
|---|---|
| Pita breads | 6 |
| Salsa | 1 cup |
| Mozzarella cheese | 1/2 cup |
| Cheddar cheese | 1 cup |
| Green pepper | 1 |
| Tomatoes | 1 |
| Onion | 1/2 |
| Black olives | 1/2 cup |
| Chicken or ground beef | 1/2 lb |
| Bean dip | 1/2 cup |
And here’s how to make them:
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
-
Prepare the pitas: Lay out the pita breads on the prepared cookie sheet and lightly spray both sides with non-stick cooking spray. This will help them get nice and crispy in the oven.
-
Make the sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the salsa and bean dip until well combined. This flavorful sauce will be the base of our Pita Mexican Supremes!
-
Spread the sauce: Take each pita pocket and generously spread some of the salsa-bean dip mixture inside. This will give every bite a burst of delicious flavor.
-
Layer on the toppings: Now it’s time to get creative! Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese onto the sauce in each pita pocket. Then, top with sliced green pepper, tomatoes, onions, and black olives. If you’re using chicken or ground beef, add it on top of the veggies.
-
More cheese, please! Finish off each pita supreme with a generous sprinkle of cheddar cheese. This gooey goodness will melt beautifully in the oven and hold everything together.
-
Bake to perfection: Pop the filled pitas into the preheated oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is hot and bubbly and the pitas are golden brown.
-
Serve and enjoy: Once they’re out of the oven, let the Pita Mexican Supremes cool for a minute or two before serving. Then, dig in and enjoy the flavorful explosion of Tex-Mex goodness in every bite! 🎉
