Olympic Village Pitas
- 1 pound pork tenderloin, cut into 12 slices
(3/4-inch each)
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 (15-ounce) can Great Northern beans or garbanzo beans, rinsed,
drained
1/2 cup chopped tomato

1/4 cup chopped cucumber
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup fat-free Caesar or Italian salad dressing
4 pita breads, warm
4 tablespoons fat-free plain yogurt
Salt and pepper, to taste
- Flatten pork tenderloin slices between
two pieces of plastic wrap gently with a meat mallet or the heel
of your hand; cook in oil in medium skillet over medium to medium-high
heat until no longer pink in the center, about 3 to 4 minutes
on each side. Drain on paper toweling; season to taste with salt
and pepper.

breads and yogurt. For each pita arrange 3 pork medallions on
