Hungry? I bet you are! You're looking at a couple of delicious whole wheat pita mini pizzas made right here in the Two Can Anne Kitchen. How did I make them? Here's the recipe:
Turn your oven broiler up to...well, broil. That's like, as high as it can go. 500 something? Ok, wait for the oven to heat up and lightly brush pita bread with some extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of kosher salt.
When the oven is nice and hot, put the pitas in the bottom broiler, just for a second to crisp up before you put on the sauce. You don't want a soggy pizza. While they're lightly toasting, go into the bedroom and make the bed. Wait until you're about to smooth out the blanket (and before you fluff up the comforter, approximately 3 minutes) and then return to the kitchen which is now completely filled with smoke. Open up the broiler to find flames engulfing the pita breads and licking at the exterior of the oven.
Freak out.
Go to shut the oven door for a second, and then realize it's probably not a good idea to let it burn out in there. Consider throwing tap water on it, and then remember that you're not supposed to throw water on a fire, it does nothing. Take box of kosher salt and throw it on fire. Fast. Turn off oven.
And you're done! Voila! Put them on the counter and take a picture of them. Offer them to Doodle. When she declines, throw them in the trash and start over with a new pita, this time only using the heat from the oven which almost caught on fire and destroyed your apartment building.
Eat and enjoy. Then consider that new toaster you have your eye on. For everyone's sake.

Anne, step away from the appliances, NOW!
I do that all the time and my toaster is brand new. I am just a lousy cook.
I am really glad there is a large gap between your building and mine.
I once threw flour on a stove fire. Did you know that flour will explode? Neither did I.
You will never be the next Food Network star if you keep burning food.
tasty!
You know what you really needed here was a food bomb.
you said it, fluffy! food is seriously a hassle. bring on the bombs!
I once had a roommate, let's call him John, he overcooked something in my toaster oven and when I walked into the kitchen, the toasteroven was on fire, and he was blowing at the flames. I laugh at it now--but then I was REALLY pissed!!
Roommates!!
oh, yes, i forgot, toaster ovens are quite flammable. you know what, though? those fires seem petty compared to this 5 alarmer we had goin on here yesterday
