Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the zucchini into half-moons, the red bell peppers into strips, and the red onion into wedges. Place all the sliced vegetables and the cherry tomatoes on the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle the vegetables with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and garlic powder. Toss to coat evenly.
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the creamy feta dressing. In a small mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and fresh dill. Stir until smooth and creamy. If needed, add a tablespoon of water to thin the dressing to your desired consistency.
Warm the pita bread in the oven for 2-3 minutes or microwave for 20 seconds to make it pliable.
Assemble the pitas by layering a handful of baby spinach onto each pita, followed by a generous portion of the roasted vegetables. Drizzle the creamy feta dressing on top.
Fold or wrap the pita around the filling and serve immediately. Enjoy your Roasted Vegetable Pita with Creamy Feta Dressing!
