Lamb Pita Pizzas

This recipe was a big repeat dinner when I lived in London - the lamb there is to die for and the beef - well ... mad cow is not really on my menu.  Since I have been in Utah, I have only found ground lamb one time.  If anyone local knows where to get it near Provo, let me know!  Substitute freely!

Pitas
EVOO
Ground lamb
Pine Nuts
Feta
Tomatoes - chopped
Cucumbers -chopped
Onions - chopped
lemon
fresh coriander - chopped
garlic - minced

cook ground lamb the same as you would ground beef - I like to add garlic, oregano & some fresh chopped coriander. 
place the pitas on a baking tray.  brush them with olive oil.
place a scoop of lamb on each pita.
sprinkle pine nuts, feta and chopped tomatoes on top of lamb.   
stick in oven at about 375 til cheese warms and pitas get toasty.

I like to make a greek salad complete with balsamic vinagrette and then I add that to the top when they come out of the oven.  You can also serve with tzatziki and hummus.

Pizza Pitas come in as many combinations as you can think of!  and the kids really like making their own "pizza" with toppings.

The Mellow Mushroom - Delray Beach, Florida

I had occasion to go to the Mellow Mushroom with a large group (about 25) after our Worldwide Photowalk in Delray Beach. It is a true place for a Foodies Unite experience!

Our entire visit was outstanding and I have since taken my family back for a great time as well.

The staff is accommodating and everyone smiles!  Even with a large group, they were ready for us - the wait-staff was organized and the food practically flew out of the kitchen.

We munched on pizzas (House Special and Kosmic Karma being two faves), and pretzels (crunchy and soft and awesome!), and calzones stuffed with all manner of high quality ingredients.  One of the girls even ordered more of the stuffed portobellos to take home!

The atmosphere is entertaining with huge murals of the Beatles and other 60's & 70's icons.  Colorful, delightful, a taste bud treat and with a beer selection to make a connoisseur weep – the Mellow Mushroom is a hit!
