1 small red bell pepper, or baby sweet peppers, sliced
1 shallot, minced
2 - 3 green onions, sliced

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place the pitas on baking sheets or pizza pans. In food processor with steel chopping blade in place and the motor running, drop in the garlic to mince. Then add the chopped kale, basil, pine nuts,zest and juice of lemon and salt and chop finely. With motor running, add the olive oil to make a nice paste or sauce.
