    Recipe Introduction


    Wendy's® Classic Greek Fresh Stuffed Pita

    Even though Wendy's uses a special custom pita that can't be bought
    in the stores, you can use the type that most people tend to slice
    open and fill. You won't be filling any pockets in this recipe
    Instead, you just heat up the pita, and fill it like a soft taco.

    List of Ingredients




    Dressing
    1/2 cup water
    1/8 teaspoon dry, unflavored gelatin
    1/3 cup white vinegar
    1/2 cup olive oil
    1/2 teaspoon finely minced red bell pepper
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
    1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
    1/8 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
    dash parsley
    dash oregano
    dash thyme
    dash basil
    1 tablespoon grated Romano cheese
    1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
    2 tablespoons egg substitute

    1 cup (4-ounce package) crumbled feta cheese
    1/2 cup tomato, seeded and diced
    1/4 cup cucumber, thinly sliced and chopped
    1/4 cup red onion, diced
    6 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
    1/4 cup red cabbage, shredded
    1/4 cup carrot, shredded
    4 pita breads

    Recipe



    1. Make the dressing by first dissolving the gelatin in the water.
    Heat the mixture in the microwave on high for two minutes or until
    it begins to boil rapidly. Add the vinegar, then whisk while adding
    the oil. Add bell pepper, salt, garlic powder, Worcestershire, black
    pepper, parsley, oregano, thyme and basil. Let dressing cool for
    about 15 minutes before adding cheeses and egg substitute. Whisk
    until slightly thicker, then chill. Overnight refrigeration makes
    the dressing thicker.
    2. Make the Greek topping for the sandwiches by combining the
    crumbled feta cheese, tomato, cucumber, and red onion in a small
    bowl.
    3. Prepare the salad by combining the romaine lettuce, red cabbage
    and shredded carrot in a large bowl and toss.
    4. Prepare the sandwiches by first microwaving each pita for 20
    seconds.
    5. Fold each pita in half like a taco, then add 1 to 1 1/2 cups of
    the romaine salad into the bread.
    6. Add 1/2 to 1/3 cup of the greek topping to each sandwich.
    7. Pour about a tablespoon of dressing over each sandwich and serve.
    Serves 4.
