How to Draw a Pita Pocket
Draw a pita pocket in 10 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: a plate.
Step 1: A plate
Near the bottom draw a long flat oval for a plate, then a second oval just inside it.
Step 2: The pita
On the plate draw a big half circle, flat side up, tipped so the right corner is higher.
Tip A pita pocket is half a round flatbread, opened up and stuffed. Rub out the plate lines inside it.
Step 3: Meat chunks
Along the flat edge draw 2 soft meat chunks poking up: one in the middle, one smaller near the right.
Step 4: Tomato slices
On the left of each chunk draw a tomato slice poking up: a half circle, round side up.
Tip Stop each slice where it meets the chunk's line.
Step 5: Frilly lettuce
From the left corner draw frilly lettuce bumps behind the meat and tomato, over to the right corner.
Step 6: Toasty spots
On the pita draw 3 little ovals for toasty spots, each a different size.
Step 7: The table
Draw a line under the plate from well left to well right.
Step 8: Tan pita, sky plate
Go over your lines, then colour the pita tan but leave the spots white, and the plate sky blue.
Step 9: Green lettuce, red tomato
Colour the lettuce green and the tomato slices red.
Step 10: Brown meat, golden spots
Colour the meat brown and the toasty spots golden brown, and your pita pocket is done!

Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a pita pocket, drawn by you.
