Instructions
Split the package of hamburger into 4 equal pieces (weigh them with a food scale if you need precise data).
Cook burgers in a large skillet. Top with 1 slice of cheese each and cut in half.
Spray the pitas with cooking spray and brown both sides on a small skillet over medium heat.
Cut the pita pockets in half, open them up, and add lettuce, pickles, onions, and cheeseburger. Top with dressing and enjoy!
Notes
If you want to save time and dishes, you can omit the step where you crisp the pita in another pan. This will result in your “bun” being a bit softer instead of crispy.Pitas are naturally light and easy to crumble, keep a fork handy in case your burger falls apart a bit. Don’t worry, it’ll be just as delicious!
