Greek Style Nachos

Its time for another recipe - this one again, is a (healthier) variation to the traditional nachos. These nachos, however, are made with pita (whole wheat/grain) triangles toasted with olive oil, a sauce of yogurt and feta spiked with mint and lemon, a topping of ground lamb (optional), onion, cumin, and garnished with tomatoes, cucumbers and olives. You can substitute the yogurt/feta sauce with a loose hummus drizzle. Vegetarians could use hummus and an eggplant puree like baba ghanouj.

Recipe:
4 pita pockets cut into wedges
1/2 cup olive oil (preferably extra virgin)
4 oz feta cheese
1/2 cup yogurt
1/2 cup chopped mint
1 lemon
Freshly ground pepper
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 lb ground lamb
1" ginger, grated
4 med. cloves garlic
1 tbsp. cumin
2-3 tomatoes, chopped
1 medium cucumber, chopped
1/2 cup kalamata olives pitted and halved (optional)
