Moms, what kind of crust do you use for pitas? Do you knead your own crust, buy ready-to-use crust or you prefer baking pitas which have no crust at all? Of course, it’s much easier to pour the pita mixture in a baking tray rather than making the filling, rolling out the crust and so forth, but do your children like such pitas? Today we will share with you a recipe for a healthy, light pita made from millet in combination with bell peppers and baby spinach.
Millet is a type of cereal crop which is rich in fiber, minerals, vitamins and most of all, proteins. It does not contain gluten and is often used as part of gluten-free food regimes. Millet is low in calories thus great for people who want to get rid of excess kilograms. It can be found in almost all supermarkets or heath food stores.
