Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (Set countertop conduction oven to Combo 2.) Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, extending it up the sides.
- Arrange bacon in a single layer on the foil (slight overlapping is okay as bacon will shrink). Place in preheated oven and cook until your desired level of doneness is reached, 10 and 20 minutes. (For countertop induction oven, cook bacon 8 to 10 minutes.) Transfer bacon to a paper-towel lined plate to drain and reserve bacon fat.
- Place Greek yogurt in a bowl. Cut 1 cucumber in half and grate half into the yogurt. Stir in minced garlic, white pepper, and kosher salt to make tzatziki sauce.
- Slice the remaining cucumber into thin slices and set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage; cook and stir until browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Drain grease.
- Transfer bacon fat to skillet over medium heat. Add pita rounds; toast until golden brown, about 30 seconds per side. Drain on paper towels.
- Top each pita with bacon and sausage. Layer tzatziki sauce, spring mix, Roma tomatoes, cucumber slices, and onion on each pita.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet. Crack in 1 egg; cook until set but still soft, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Place egg on top of layered pita. Repeat with remaining oil and eggs. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:
- Choose the right pita bread: Look for pita bread that is fresh and has a soft, chewy texture. You can find pita bread in the bakery section of most grocery stores.
- Heat the pita bread before filling it: This will help to make the pita bread more pliable and easier to fill. You can heat the pita bread in a toaster oven, on a griddle, or in a skillet.
- Don't overfill the pita bread: Otherwise, it will be difficult to eat. Aim to fill the pita bread with about 1/2 cup of filling.
- Use a variety of fillings: There are endless possibilities when it comes to fillings for breakfast pitas. Some popular options include eggs, cheese, bacon, sausage, vegetables, and fruit.
- Get creative with your toppings: Once you have filled your pita bread, you can top it with a variety of toppings, such as salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or hot sauce.
Conclusion:
Breakfast pitas are a quick, easy, and delicious way to start your day. They are also a great way to use up leftover ingredients. With so many different fillings and toppings to choose from, there is sure to be a breakfast pita that everyone will enjoy.
