Pita Stuffed Souvlaki

5.0(6)

If you are like me, sometimes there is to much of a good thing and that leaves leftovers. I made CountryLady's Recipe #110939 and there was about 6 ounces left. What to with it? Stuffed Pita's of course. This is an quick fix for leftover Souvlaki. Of course you will also need leftover tzatziki! For a quick weeknight meal for two, serve with a large Greek salad.
