Instructions

Set the oven to 375 degrees F. With kitchen shears, cut the pita round into 1-inch pieces. In a bowl, sprinkle the pita with just enough olive oil so a drop lands on each piece. Toss well. Sprinkle with salt and toss again.
Spread the pieces out on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 2 minutes, then toss the chips. Bake another 2 minutes and toss again.
Remove any pieces that are starting to look crisp and golden. Continue baking for another 1 to 2 minutes until all the pieces are crisp and golden. Set aside to cool.
In a large bowl combine the cucumbers, radishes, large and cherry tomatoes, scallions, and red onion.
Sprinkle the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper over the vegetables and toss gently but thoroughly. Add the mint and parsley and toss again.
Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper, if you like. Add the pita chips and toss gently to avoid crushing them. Serve immediately.
