  1. This is a wonderful goto breakfast or lunch! I love making it on weekends and then heating it up in the morning when I'm in a hurry!

  2. The egg mixture wouldn't hold its shape if you put it in the bread uncooked. That'd be a big soggy mess. But this could definitely be made ahead of time and frozen, then reheated in the microwave!

  3. How would I bake this in the oven if the handles on my pan are not oven safe? Any other way to do this?

    1. Shelley, I haven’t tried freezing the pita sandwich. If you do this is my recommendation: Place in a ziplock freezer type bag, thaw in the fridge, reheat in a 350 degree oven until heated through, about 15 minutes.
