Speedy Stuffed Pitas

4 ingredients
10 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 pita bread
  • 2 slices brie cheese (Blue Cambozola is very tasty)
  • 3 roasted peppers, from a jar
  • 14 cup lettuce

Directions

  1. 1
    Trim off one of the long edges of the pita bread.
  2. 2
    Put the pita in the toaster on a medium setting for a second or two, then pop it up and open it like they do in kebab houses, being careful it doesn't split.
  3. 3
    (Warming the bread first makes this easier.)
  4. 4
    If the pita doesn't fit your toaster, use the grill, or try mini pitas.
  5. 5
    Stuff the cheese and peppers inside the pocket and close by gently pressing it down.
  6. 6
    Pop it back into the toaster on a medium setting (or under the grill) with the open side upwards.
  7. 7
    Toss the watercress in a drizzling of your favourite dressing or some olive oil.
  8. 8
    When the pita pops up, cut it in half for easy eating, or leave it as it is.
  9. 9
    Allow it to cool for a moment as it is quite hot at first.
  10. 10
    Serve with the watercress and have a napkin at the ready - the yummy pepper juices may leak when you take the first bite.
