ZESTY GREEK PITA

I have come to love Greek food so much. We have a fantastic Greek rest. in our town. It is a special treat to go and sit outside and eat some of my favorite dishes. One of them is their Greek Salad with their pita bread. When I saw this recipe I thought the combination reminded me of the salad. You can add black olives and a spoonful of of tzatziki or greek dressing.
