Cooking and preparing food is an everyday occurrence in most households, so why not try and let your kids help and learn along the way.

  3. Lay the skewers onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Combine the olive oil, and oregano and brush over the skewers, being sure to put extra onto the pitas so they don’t dry out in the cooking process.

  7. While the skewers are cooking, warm up marinara sauce either on the stove or in the microwave.
