Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp black pepper. Stir until smooth and refrigerate while assembling pitas.

  3. Step 3: Carefully cut open the 6 mini pita pockets to create pockets without tearing and spoon equal amounts of the vegetable mixture inside each pita.
  4. Step 4: Drizzle or spread about 1 tbsp of the creamy dill yogurt sauce inside each pita pocket over the vegetables.
  5. Step 5: Serve immediately as a fresh, crunchy, and creamy kid-friendly meal or snack.
