Commentary: 

The best way to eat Pita bread leftovers is by using it in making the famous Fattoush Salad from the Middle East.  

Make sure to add the crispy pita bread pieces when it is time to serve the salad in order to keep it crispy and fresh and avoid from getting soggy. You can also add crushed garlic to the salad dressing for a strong, zesty flavor!
