Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
In a bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic, and dill. As you prepare the vegetables, add them to the bowl: dice the celery, tomato, and bell pepper, seed and dice the cucumber, mince the red onion, chop the olives. Toss well. Add salt and pepper to taste. The filling tastes best if it sits at room temperature for at least 10 minutes. It will keep in the refrigerator for a couple of days.
Step 2
Cut the pitas in half and toast them lightly. To serve, stuff each pita half with filling.
Variation
Step 3
Add about 3 ounces of seasoned seitan, chopped. Look for seasoned seitan in the refrigerator section near the tofu in natural foods stores and many supermarkets.
