No Bake Nutella Balls (chocolate truffles)

Here’s a new favourite truffle I added to our Christmas cookie boxes this year. I’ll share with you how to make No Bake Nutella Balls covered in chocolate with a few sprinkles to make them look festive. These were so delicious. I had a hard time not eating all of them myself. You can crush the graham crackers yourself, but I just purchased a box of crumbs.

Easy Cheesy Pita Pizza

Here's something I make often.

Sometimes I'll use a tortilla instead, it just depends what I have on hand. You can use any kind of cheese you like and if you're in the mood, add other toppings. I like the little bit of sourness you get from using tomato paste but you could use pizza sauce if you prefer.


Easy Cheesy Pita Pizza
Makes 1 pizza

Ingredients
  • 1 pita
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • shredded or sliced mozzarella cheese
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 450F.
  2. Spread the tomato paste over the pita then sprinkle with oregano and garlic. Top with cheese. Place directly on the oven rack and bake for about 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly.
Tips:
  • Make sure your cheese isn't too close to the edge or it could bubble over and make a mess of your oven. You can place your pizza on a baking sheet or foil if you want to play it safe, but sometimes the bottom doesn't get crispy.
