The ingredients for Sausage, peppers, onions on a pita are:

1lb italian sausage (I use hot, but mild is fine)
1 medium onion, sliced into half-rings
1 large pepper, sliced into strips (I like red peppers, but green is fine)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 can tomato paste
1 tsp basil
1/2 tsp oregano (or use 1 tsp italian seasoning instead of basil and oregano)

Here is how you make Sausage, peppers, onions on a pita:

Saute the sausage in olive oil until cooked through, remove from pan and saute peppers and onions until they begin to soften. When the sausage is cooled a bit, cut it into bite sized pieces and return to pan. Add the seasonings, tomato paste and 1 can of water, stir to mix it all up, then cover the pan and cook until the veggies are soft, the sauce has thickened up and the flavors have blended nicely (I give it about 15 minutes). Spoon out into a large warmed pita bread, roll up and serve. I wrap the rolled-up pita in tin foil so it doesn't drip, and we can eat them as finger food (sorta )Number of Servings: 5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user JACKTHLION.
