I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pitas turned out really bland. Maybe I didn't add enough seasoning.

I had a hard time finding veggie chicken at my local grocery store. I ended up using tofu instead.

These pitas were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more sauce next time.

These pitas were a little too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by using less cayenne pepper.
