These sandwiches are more like a gyro instead of a stuffed pita. A combination of warm chicken and cool crisp veggies are piled on top of a soft pita round. This irresistible filling then gets drizzled with a creamy, tangy yogurt sauce and sprinkled with briny feta cheese. Plan to double the sauce to serve with raw veggies, like carrots, cherry tomatoes, or cucumbers, as a snack or spooned over grilled meat or fish. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to a week. You could use wraps instead of pita to roll up this sandwich, or add more lettuce and serve it as a salad.
