Cheeseburger Pita's

This recipe is adapted from one that a local sandwich shop from back home makes except without the hefty price tag. Pita is a great alternative to a sub or roll and you can stuff them with practically anything. This however is one of my favorites.


Cheeseburger Pita's
--------------------
6 pre-shaped hamburger patties
American Cheese
1 large *or 2 medium* onion sliced not chopped
pickles
lettuce
tomatoes
shredded lettuce
4 pita pockets *these come in a variety of sizes I like a medium sized one which is the equivalent of a 6 inch sub*

Sauce
-------
1/4 cup each of mayonnaise
mustard and ketchup stir til blended

Butter a pan and start by browning onions. While they are cooking throw the hamburgers in a pan and cook them however you like. Make sure the onions don't burn though so keep an eye on them. Open up the pitas and brush the inside with the sauce. Pile in some of the onions then cut your patties in half. For a medium size pita you will use 1 and a 1/2 patties. Layer across the onions slightly overlapping. Pile in a couple slices of tomato and pickles and top with some shredded lettuce. Nothing should be coming out of the top everything should be stuffed gently inside.

There you go cheeseburger pitas. I know my math is a little off with the 6 patties and it's not quite a full 1 and a half each per pita but for my family this amount works. You might need to adjust for yours.
