Cheeseburger Pita image

David came up with this recipe yesterday for our oldest son's return from Band Camp. Our son said the camp food was something akin to packing materials and was nothing but sheer torture! In honor of our son the family burger fiend and since David was making pita pizzas anyway, he decided to combine the two into this recipe. Needless to say, our son absolutely devoured the cheeseburger pita and asked for more the next day. We hope you all enjoy it as much as he did! (But do try to eat it a little more slowly, okay? ;D)

The cheeseburger pitas were good, but I found the recipe to be a bit too complicated. I think there are easier ways to make a cheeseburger pita.

These cheeseburger pitas were a bit too greasy for my taste, but the flavor was still good. I think I would try using leaner ground beef next time.
