GREEK SAUSAGE PITAS
I nicknamed my sandwich "Thor's Pita" because it's lightening fast and robust. The ingredient amounts don't really matter. Use more or less depending on what you have. -Teresa Aleksandrov, Ypsilanti, Michigan

CHEESY PITA CRISPS

Steps:
- First, heat a pan on medium heat (I like to spray a little cooking spray, because the sausages sometimes stick) and then cook the two sausage patties until browned.
- Then take the slices of cheese and place them on the sausage pattie, and turn the heat down to low.
- When the cheese is a little melted take the patties and place them in the halfed pita pocket. Then put the pocket back in the pan, and brown until lightly toasted on both sides.
- Lastly, take out the pita pocket and spoon the sauce into the sandwich.
- enjoy.
- *NOTE: you can use any type of cheese or meat and sauce.

Steps:
- Trim off one of the long edges of the pitta bread, put the pitta in the toaster on a medium setting for a second or two, then pop it up and open it like they do in kebab houses, being careful it doesn't split. (Warming the bread first makes this easier.) If the pitta doesn't fit your toaster, use the grill, or try mini pittas.
- Stuff the cheese and peppers inside the pocket and close by gently pressing it down. Pop it back into the toaster on a medium setting (or under the grill) with the open side upwards.
- Toss the watercress in a drizzling of your favourite dressing or some olive oil. When the pitta pops up, cut it in half for easy eating, or leave it as it is. Allow it to cool for a moment as it is quite hot at first. Serve with the watercress and have a napkin at the ready - the yummy pepper juices may leak when you take the first bite.
