Enjoy your dinner

Mini Pitas are delicious as a snack, side dish or with tapas as a dip sandwich. You can actually use them for anything. If you want extra tasty pitas, sprinkle some herbs through the flour, such as oregano, thyme and coriander. This will enhance the flavor of each dish. If you prefer a larger version of the pita, make 8 balls instead of 16.
