GREEK CHICKEN & PITA CASSEROLE

(CLICK HERE FOR THE RECIPE)

I know I am behind on posting recipes.  It doesn't mean that

I haven't cooked any new recipes.

It means that my family is in a busy time of the year

heading to all the stock shows.

 This recipe appealed to me for some reason.

For one, I don't think I've ever had Greek seasoning.

Of course in our small town, finding a seasoning with

GREEK written on it was a NO GO.

Another thing it had was zucchini.

We all like zucchini.

Of course, I couldn't find zucchini...so squash is the next best thing right?

The ingredient I was hesitant about was FETA CHEESE.

I do not care for FETA CHEESE, but decided I would at

least give it a try.

After all, I had just had some on some bruschetta and actually liked it.

When it comes time to cut the Pita Bread, us a pizza cutter....

of course I figured this out AFTER I cut it with a serrated knife...saw, saw, saw.

OK, back to the seasoning.....I couldn't find GREEK SEASONING.

So, I did the next best thing and called my MOMMY.

She wasn't sure, so we did the next best thing behind a mom's experience....

she googled it.

According to the ingredients, the MEDITERRANEAN SEASONING was

really close to the GREEK SEASONING.

It didn't look much different AFTER it cooked.

To me, it smelled good.

Here it is in all it's glory.

Ready for the real test.

Did it pass the manly man test or not?

THUMBS DOWN!

He even said, 2 thumbs down.

Of course he is holding the plate with the other thumb and couldn't point it down.

When I asked if he liked it.....he said, "I like the peas and carrots."

This recipe was a thumbs down by all 3 of us.

I can't pinpoint if it was using a different seasoning and squash or the feta

We did like the toasted pita so all was not lost.

So, please make sure YOU try it and let me know what YOU think.

The dogs liked it......
