NOTES : I never would have guessed that a simple, little recipe could cause
such a stir--but "Wrong, Old Weatherbreath!" My healthful pita hero with
turkey has prompted many questions about its origin. So...here's the story.
It's really no big deal. About five or six years ago, when I was trying to
find something around the house to snack on, all I could come up with were
some leftover turkey, an assortment of vegetables, and a couple of nearly
stale whole-wheat pita pockets. So, I grilled a few slices of zucchini,
onion, and eggplant and tossed them into the pita pocket, added some turkey
slices, tomato, and mustard, topped it all off with a generous pinch of
sprouts, and voil'a--a legend was born. This is a meal that is tasty,
loaded with essential nutrients, and very low in fat. So, unless you have
Charlie Gibson's taste in food, give "Spencer's Healthful Hero" a try.
