Ingredients

For the dressing:
2 (8-ounce) containers of fat-free plain yogurt
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced parsley
1 tablespoon minced chive
1 teaspoon dried oregano

For the sandwich:
1/2 pound sirloin or rib-eye steak, trimmed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 (4-inch) whole wheat pita bread rounds, cut in half-moons
21/2 cups mixed salad greens (such as arugula, radicchio and baby spinach leaves)
2/3 cup crumbled Blue cheese
1/2 small red onion, sliced and separated into rings
8 cherry tomatoes, halved

Preparation

Spoon yogurt into medium bowl and stir in garlic, parsley, chive and oregano until well blended. Set aside.

Rub both sides of steak with salt and pepper. Heat medium, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook steak about 6 minutes on each side (for medium) or until desired. Allow steak to rest 5 minutes before cutting into thin slices.

Warm pita halves in toaster. Into each pita half, spoon 1/4 of the yogurt dressing, mixed salad greens, Blue cheese, onion, steak and tomato. Spoon additional yogurt dressing over top.
