Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

- In a small bowl, combine olive oil and spices.
- With a pastry brush spread oil mixture onto the pita bread.
- Spread marinara sauce on the pita bread, leaving 1/2 inch border along the edges.
- Add mozzarella cubes to the pita, spacing them out equally.
- Bake in oven at 400F for 10-15 minutes, or until the edges of the pita bread are brown and the cheese is bubbling. Remove from the oven.

Notes
- If you use frozen pita bread, you do not need to thaw it before using. It will take closer to the 15 minutes to bake in the oven. If you use fresh pita bread, start checking at 8 minutes.
