Rated 5 out of 5 by jforte13 from I made this with 1/3 reduced fat cream cheese and added mushrooms. I made this with 1/3 reduced fat cream cheese and added mushrooms. It was delicious and one pita was the perfect size. My kids and husband loved it! It took less than 30 mins from start to finish and the clean up was really easy. I would definitely make this again.
