Greek Salad with its tangy vinaigrette makes an ideal filling for pita bread. These bright and refreshing pita pocket sandwiches are perfect for an after-tennis party with friends. Serve them along with crisp root vegetable chips. Fill glasses with zesty lemonade, or uncork a chilled Rose or dry white wine such as a Fume Blanc or Pinot Gris.

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint leaves
1 garlic clove, minced

3/4 cup drained chopped roasted red bell pepper from jar
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives, sliced
6 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (about 1 1/2 cups)
Half of 6-ounce package baby spinach leaves

4 pita breads, cut crosswise in half
DIRECTIONS
Whisk first 5 ingredients in large bowl. Add cucumber, tomatoes, bell pepper and olives; toss to coat. Mix in feta and spinach. Season salad to taste with salt and pepper.
