SWEET CHICKEN PITAS
Sweet but not too sweet. Delicious and low-fat. I always make these for one, so that's what the recipe calls for but they're easily multiplied. Also, I've never measured anything so my measurements are just "eyeballed" - customize to your own taste. Make sure to use red onion instead of white or green and deli mustard instead of plain yellow, these make all the difference. Cooking time is for cooking the chicken breast.
