Bacon Apple Gouda Pita Snacks
Having an arsenal of ingredients on hand so you can throw together a light meal or snack in a flash is essential, in my opinion. Not only do my kids come home from school/practice hungry, there are all of the snacks and lunches in between.
One of my favorite ways to snack is putting something on a pita or in a tortilla. It’s an efficient way to wrap or hold just about anything. In the last 16 months I have been sharing recipes made using a line of tortillas and pitas (and so much more) from Toufayan Bakeries. I have enjoyed getting to know this company a bit better and eating really well along the way. If you are looking for high quality gluten-free foods then I suggest you visit their website. They make so much more than just gluten-free and the pitettes I used for this recipe are not GF.
These pitettes are a smaller version of a full sized pita. I like this because it screams portion control to me. It is just big enough to make a filling meal for my kids (and their mom) and that is all I need for these bacon apple Gouda pita snacks.
You can’t beat the combo of apples and cheese together. Add bacon and this is delightful. I made these in the toaster oven and taught my kids this recipe as well. If you want to bulk this up a bit you can add a layer of sliced turkey as well. My son suggested, and he had a good point, to add a bit of cheese as a first layer to keep the toppings on once melted. I like this idea!
