For a vegetarian option, skip the chicken and bacon and add grilled halloumi or chickpeas. Make your own Caesar dressing for an even fresher taste. A simple blend of mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and Parmesan cheese works wonders. Toast pita bread halves for a minute or two before filling for added warmth and texture.
