Quick Breakfast in a Pita

SUBMITTED BY: Elsie  PHOTO BY: SK 

"Pita bread sandwiches with scrambled eggs and potatoes. Very quick. I sometimes make it for myself when I'm rushed. This recipe is great for using up leftovers, and is very versatile: you can add any other seasonings you like, and you can use egg substitute if you prefer."
