This is a tasty and unique way to prepare burgers! The lemon and oregano give them a good flavor and the pita is a nice change from the same old hamburger buns. I had to use ground turkey because I wasn't able to find ground chicken and I also used relish instead of the olives and cucumbers due to personal preference. I will definitely be making this again.

In the words of Tracy Byrd, "I'm from the country & I like it that way"!!
On May 1, 2008 my husband and I started a new adventure. We'll be living in a 37 foot RV while our new home is under construction. Its out in the country on a dead end dirt road with lots of trees. For the next 4 months or so, most meals will be cooked on the BBQ and life will be full of challenges!
We love spending quality time with our friends & family - especially the grandkids!! The photo is 4 generations - my 84 year old mother, myself, my daughter & my youngest granddaughter - taken at the end of 2006.
