Ingredients - Makes 4 to 6 servings

2 stale 7-inch pitas, split open
1 cucumber, quartered and thinly sliced
14 cherry tomatoes, halved
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1 small fennel bulb, cored and diced
2 stalks celery, sliced
2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh mint

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
