I love these pita pockets! They're so flavorful and satisfying. I usually add some extra veggies, like spinach or tomatoes, to make them even healthier.

These pita pockets were a great way to get my kids to eat their vegetables. They loved the chicken and the veggies, and they didn't even notice the healthy ingredients.

These pita pockets were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time.
