Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix low-fat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to make the sauce.
Cut each whole wheat pita bread in half to create pockets.
Stuff the pita pockets with shredded turkey, sautéed spinach, slices of tomato, and a generous dollop of the yogurt sauce.
Top each stuffed pita with a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Place the stuffed pita halves on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving. Enjoy your healthy and delicious Turkey Pita Florentine!
