Directions
-
Chop the onion, green bell pepper, and smoked ham into small, uniform pieces.
-
Melt margarine or butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat.

Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet; cook and stir until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

In a bowl, lightly beat the eggs with a fork.
-
Stir the ham, drained pimientos, salt, and pepper into the beaten eggs.
-
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables.
-
Cook over low heat, gently lifting cooked portions with a spatula to let uncooked egg flow to the bottom.
-
Avoid constant stirring; cook for 3 to 5 minutes until eggs are thickened but still moist.
-
Cut the 6-inch bread rounds (pitas) in half to create pockets.
-
Divide the warm egg and ham mixture evenly among the pita pockets.
-
Serve immediately while hot.
