Garden Vegetable Pita Sandwiches Food

THE ULTIMATE VEGETARIAN PITA SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together all ingredients for pickled carrots. Set aside for at least 5 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, mix together all ingredients for dill yogurt sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
• Wrap a damp paper towel around the pita bread and microwave until just warmed (about 10 seconds per pita). This will make it more malleable and less likely to break.
• To assemble the sandwiches, layer about 2-3 tablespoons of the hummus, yogurt sauce, and tabbouleh, with some greens, tomato, and carrots, in that order, on each pita. Carefully wrap the pita around the ingredients. If it seems too messy or like it's going to break, wrap it in foil or parchment to keep it together.

• In a small bowl, mix the chopped tomato, grated cabbage, carrot, cheese and tomato ketchup together, along with salt.
• Cover one slice of bread with this vegetable mixture and season it with pepper.
• Now put the other slice of bread on top of the vegetable-covered one, and your sandwich is ready to eat!
• You can also grill this sandwich if you like, or top it with some more grated cheese and pop it in the oven for about 5-10 minutes at 350 C.

VEGGIE-STACK PITA POCKETS

Steps:

• Combine the chickpeas, water, cheese, lemon juice, salt and red pepper flakes in a food processor and puree until completely smooth, about 5 minutes. While the motor is running, pour in the olive oil and process until fully incorporated and velvety. Season with pepper, to taste.
• Spoon a scant tablespoon bean spread into toasted pitas. (Put remaining bean spread in an air-tight container.) Add avocado and cucumber slices, or other vegetables of choice and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Wrap in parchment or butcher paper, and pack in a plastic container to keep from getting squished. Pack in a lunch box and send to school.
