How to Make It
- Preheat oven to 375°F. In a small bowl microwave garlic and oil 30 seconds. Arrange pita halves, cut sides up, on a large baking sheet. Brush cut sides of pitas with some of the garlic oil; sprinkle feta evenly over top. Bake 5 to 8 minutes or until edges of pitas start to brown.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk together the remaining garlic oil, the vinegar, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Add the remaining ingredients; toss to coat.
- Top pitas with salad. Serve immediately.
