- Drizzle of balsamic glaze 3 g or ml
- 1 Greek Pita (I LOVE the "Papa Pita" sold at Costco and my regular grocers like Ralphs and Staters.
Instructions
- Chop everything and toss in dressing.
- Warm pita for just 30 seconds -1 minute per side in a dry pan on the stove till warm.
- Plate pita and cut in fourths.
- Top with about half the salad- but bring the other half to the table in your bowl-- it's all yours!
- Drizzle with balsamic glaze
- Pick up each wedge like a piece of salad topped pizza.
- Should I tell you how to chew?
- This is probably too many directions huh...
Notes
My amounts and macros are for ONE pita with TWICE the salad I have on top of this one pita. I like to have the rest in a bowl on the side that I can keep piling on as needed. I piled all the salad on TWO pitas this time for the sake of the photos. Don't worry I still took all my salad off the other pita and ate it.
