Greek Pita Wraps



What are we going to eat for dinner this week?! The persistent question in all our homes, right? Well, hopefully this recipe can be your answer for at least a couple of days. 

Also, full disclosure: I love cooking without a recipe. Of course, I use recipes while baking, and when I am trying a new dish, but I get some sort of thrill from improvising in the kitchen without a script. Sometimes this yields questionable results. (My husband, who is a precise recipe follower and a talented cook/gardener often reminds me of this :) However, I do occasionally come up with some delicious dishes. Plus, I get annoyed when recipes go into WAY too much detail, i.e. I am not going to tell you how many tablespoons of hummus to measure out onto your pita sandwich. I think you can figure that out by yourself. Hope you enjoy my not-so-specific instructions!
