lamb pitas with yogurt sauce

I enjoyed my pita meat on the side but the rest of the family actually wrapped the "lamb" in pitas.  I couldn't find lamb because I didn't look very hard and wanted to use pork anyways.  This was a delicious dish and I particularly enjoyed the tomato base which was different than what I've had before.  The meat was tender and delicious and I was more than completely satisfied with our meal.  The whole family enjoyed it.
