5. I make my own pizza using pita bread for crust

I usually put avocado on the bottom, then cover that with chopped Welsh onion, maybe some chopped pitted olives and canned or fresh mushrooms, pour some homemade pizza sauce over that, and shred some cheese on top of that. Then I stick it in a toaster oven for about 6 minutes, let it cool inside the toaster oven for about one minute, then heat again for one minute to get the crust crispy. It is delicious, and nutritious and cheap to boot.
