INSTRUCTIONS
We've given a twist to the traditional Greek salad, then tucked it into
toasted pita bread to come up with a tasty lunchtime treat.
Place tomato slices in strainer; drain 15 minutes. Combine tomatoes,
spinach, cucumber, feta cheese, olives and basil in large bowl.
Whisk 1/4 cup olive oil, 5 teaspoons lemon juice and minced garlic in small
bowl to blend. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper. Pour dressing
over salad and toss to coat.
Cut pita bread rounds in half crosswise. Divide salad mixture among 8 pita
halves and serve.
