In a medium skillet on medium-high heat, warm the pitas slightly, about 30 seconds on each side. Transfer to a plate and cover with another plate to keep warm. -
Pour the oil in the skillet, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the green onions for about 2 minutes, or until beginning to soften. -
Stir in the sausage crumbles. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until just heated through. -
Pour in the egg substitute. Reduce the heat to medium low. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until set, stirring often. -
Cut the pitas in half. Spoon the egg mixture into each. Drizzle with the salsa.
Tip: Soybeans provide easily digested high-quality protein and essential amino acids. Meat-free soy-based products that replace sausage, bacon, and burgers offer all the taste without the fat.
Tip: Serving size 1 stuffed pita half.
