Pita Lasagna

You can make this ahead of time and keep it refrigerated until you're ready to serve it. Make it for a light lunch for four and serve it with a fresh, crisp side salad. If the suggested cheese ingredients don' set with your LI level, just use the cheese that pleases your tummy.

  • Preheat broiler.

  • In a medium bowl, combine yogurt cheese, tomato paste, onion, garlic, Parmesan cheese, parsley, and seasonings. Whisk until well blended.

  • Spread about ¼ cup of the mixture over the bottom of each pita bread round. Sprinkle tops with grated mozzarella.

  • Broil briefly just until cheese melts, about a minute. Replace tops and press together. Broil a few moments longer and serve immediately.
