Certain leftovers are an excellent topping for pizza, while other leftovers are an outstanding pizza crust. Take pita breads, for example. Whenever I have a couple random pitas lying around, I use them to make pizza.
Come Party With Me: Bachelorette — Menu
While the bridal shower was sunny and sophisticated, my friend Ronda's bachelorette will be fantastical and fabulous. Since she's a huge fan of belly dancing, the maid of honor has chosen this sensual dance to serve as the party's theme.

Fast & Easy Dinner: Skirt Steak With Pita and Yogurt Sauce
To be more savvy, professional chefs like Traci Des Jardins are encouraging home cooks to use lesser cuts of meat. While some are ideal for slow-cooking techniques like braising, others are great for quick-searing. Skirt steak, a cheaper cut from the cow's diaphragm muscle, is ideal for grilling.
Monday's Leftovers: Salad With Feta, Chickpeas, and Pita

Reader Recipe: Hummus With Pita Chips
I haven't made any fresh hummus recently, but when I came across Shiloh Jolie Pitt's recipe, I remembered how it's super easy to make. While you could buy a commercial variety from the grocery store aisle, there's a significant difference between the taste of store-bought hummus and the creamy homemade kind. To make the entire meze even better, take a few minutes to toast the pita chips in the oven — they'll come out warm and crispy.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Steak Salad-Stuffed Pockets
This recipe gives the classic steak sandwich a healthy makeover. Broiled steak is tossed with a crunchy cucumber-romaine salad before being stuffed into a whole wheat pita. A simple dressing made with mustard, lemon juice, and olive oil adds a fresh moistness to the sandwich.
Come Party With Me: Boy's Birthday — Menu
For a boy's birthday party on Alcatraz, pack a portable feast of special dishes that wouldn't normally be found in the common ten year olds lunch box. Keep things simple with easy to eat chicken salad pitas. On the side offer a pasta salad packed with salami and cheese and small bags of chips (let each boy select their favorite bag of chips).
Fast & Easy Dinner: Greek Melt
Filled with Greek flavors, this delicious dinner is part salad, part pizza. A crisp pita is topped with sautéed spinach and roasted tomatoes. A creamy yogurt feta sauce, scented with fresh lemon juice, finishes off the open-faced dish.
Not Your Regular Nachos: Mediterranean Nachos
Yesterday before heading to the Nordstrom Fall Preview Fashion Show, I whipped up a quick batch of my signature nachos for FabSugar and I to enjoy. With no time to run to the store, I used ingredients leftover from last week's Greek nachos to make a vegetarian, Mediterranean-inspired appetizer. The pita chips were crisped in the oven before being topped with a Spanish sheep's milk cheese.
Name That Dish!
Yesterday I suggested you stuff a pita with chicken, mushrooms, and arugula. A filling that is just as delicious and a little more traditional is pictured below. Do you know what it's called?
