Time 10m

Yield 1 sandwich, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

2 jimmy dean turkey sausage patties
2 -3 slices cheese (I reccommend Cabot sharp cheddar cheese)
1/2 pita pocket
2 -3 tablespoons taco bell mild taco sauce

Steps:

First, heat a pan on medium heat (I like to spray a little cooking spray, because the sausages sometimes stick) and then cook the two sausage patties until browned.
Then take the slices of cheese and place them on the sausage pattie, and turn the heat down to low.
When the cheese is a little melted take the patties and place them in the halfed pita pocket. Then put the pocket back in the pan, and brown until lightly toasted on both sides.
Lastly, take out the pita pocket and spoon the sauce into the sandwich.
enjoy.
*NOTE: you can use any type of cheese or meat and sauce.
