1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Chop pork into bite-size slices.
2. Heat 4 tbsp olive oil in a large nonstick skillet (or 2 smaller ones) over medium high heat.
3. In large bowl, combine garlic, 2 tsp (little spoon) salt, and pork, tossing well to coat. Let stand for 5 minutes.
4. Arrange the pitas in a single layer on cookie sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 5 minutes or until crisp, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool.
5. While pitas bake, add pork mixture to pan(s) and cook for 5-10 minutes or until cooked through.
Chop all vegetables. Place fresh peppers and onions (not green onions), in clean pan with 1-2 tsp olive oil and cook on medium-high heat for 5-10 minutes, just to start softening them.
6. Remove pork from pans and place in a large clean bowl. Stir in tomatoes, onions, mint, vinegar, juice from lemon, cucumbers, peppers, and another 3/4 tsp salt.
7. Break pitas into bite-sized pieces and stir into mixture.
