I thought the recipe was a bit too complicated. I ended up just throwing everything in a pan and it turned out fine.

These were a lifesaver on a busy weeknight. They were quick and easy to make, and they were a healthier alternative to takeout.

I'm not a fan of chicken sausage, but these pita pockets were still really good. I used Italian sausage instead.

I thought the pita pockets were a bit bland. I added some extra spices and they were much better.

I used turkey sausage instead of chicken and it turned out great! I also added some chopped spinach to the filling.
