Peppered Pork Pitas with Garlic Spread


340 Calories per Pita

The pitas were great- but one pita wasn't very filling, so if you're going for a low calorie meal, this may not be the best option for you. Because the hubs and I are trying to stick to low cal meals, I probably won't make this one again- but it was tasty.
