Instructions
- Heat oven to 400ºF.
- Cut each pita into 6 wedges. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheer and spray them lightly with cooking spray. Season with salt, then bake for 10 minutes, or until golden. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the orzo and cook according to the package directions. Drain and reserve.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then the oregano and cinnamon. Add the onions, garlic and eggplant and cook until they start to get tender, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in the spinach and the tomato sauce. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes, then taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.
- Chop the olives with the lemon zest and parsley, forming a Greek gremolata.
- Combine the cooked orzo with the meat sauce. Divide the mixture among bowls, then top with feta cheese and the olive gremolata. Serve the goulash with the baked pita chips.
