These are really good, though I'm not giving a star rating because I changed the recipe quite a bit. Our cucumbers got shoved to the back of the fridge and froze, so I skipped those. I used dried dill, lemon juice, and garlic powder in the yogurt. Then I used goat cheese instead of feta, and added some chopped pecans. Great way to use up leftover turkey or chicken!

I used Mama's Kitchen's Lemon Chicken leftovers for this pita. The flavors of the chicken blended nicely with the ingredients! I added walnuts and used fresh mint instead of dried mint. I also put it on a bed of spinach and shredded carrots instead of red leaf lettuce. I loved the combination of flavors in this recipe! The feta cheese is a wonderful touch! I cut this recipe in half and made two pita sandwiches.
