I'm not a big fan of celery, so I omitted it from the recipe. It was still delicious!

This recipe was a little too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll use less cayenne pepper.

Great recipe! I used a store-bought rotisserie chicken instead of turkey, and it turned out just as good. The salad was creamy and flavorful, and the pitas were soft and fluffy. My husband and I both really enjoyed it.
