Greek Pita “Pizza” Muffins

0 from 0 votes

As a kid of the 1970s, I grew up on pizza muffins! They were my favorite afternoon snack and among the first experiences I had "cooking." I've reworked the concept here using pita bread, fresh tomatoes and feta cheese, a trio made in heaven. This makes for a great snack no matter what time of the day it is.
