Baked Greek Pita Wedges
When I entertain, fast and easy appetizers are what I prefer to make; I spend enough time cooking a beautiful main course and baking a scrumptious dessert, the last thing I need is to focus on the first course. There’s a delicious selection I can choose from like Sweet Chili Chicken Bites, Onion Rings, Sardine Cups, Bruschetta, Oysters Rockefeller, Moo Shu Pork Tortillas, Coquilles St Jacques, Zucchini Sticks, Asian Cucumber Salmon Rolls, Stuffed Buns, Seafood Cocktails, Jalapeño Bacon Cheese Dip, and many others…
I love Greek food and I have a few quick & easy appetizer recipes as well including Greek Salad, Saganaki Opa, Olive Tapenade, Greek Pizza, Tzatziki Dip, Dakos, etc. including this featured one… Baked Greek Pita Wedges!
As simple as the combination of ingredients is, the results are fabulous! Just to name a few, there’s Greek yogurt, feta cheese, Greek seasoning, garlic, mint leaves, etc. After the topping is nicely blended and spooned over the pita, it takes 10 minutes to cook in the oven… awesome!
This is one of my go-to appetizer recipes. It doesn’t matter the time of year or the event, these Baked Greek Pita Wedges are always a hit! To bring them a notch higher in the yumminess department, I like to dress the pita up with pieces of cherry tomatoes and a few slices of black olives… it wraps everything up so beautifully!
It doesn’t matter if it’s a party, a get together with friends or a special occasion, I like to make quick and easy appetizers and these Baked Greek Pita Wedges are perfect for that! They also make a great mid-afternoon snack. In 20 minutes or so, they’re ready to eat… is that quick or what?
Bon Appétit!
