News flash: We’re craving pizza. (Story of our lives, honestly.) The only problem? There’s no time for takeout and we want our lunch to be at least somewhat healthy. Chef Sara Lynn Cauchon, author of The Domestic Geek’s Meals Made Easy: A Fresh, Fuss-Free Approach to Healthy Cooking, is coming to the rescue with her easy recipe for Mediterranean pita pizzas.

“When it’s lunchtime and I’m at my laziest, pita pizzas are the answer,” Cauchon says. “They can be prepped in a flash and cook just as quickly. If you’re making them at the office, I recommend opting for the toaster oven over the microwave for best results.”

A 15-minute meal with no clean-up? Be still our hearts.
