TURKEY PITAS WITH CUCUMBERS, CHICKPEAS AND TAHINI



Turkey Pitas With Cucumbers, Chickpeas and Tahini image

These vibrant, crunchy, creamy turkey sandwiches have all the flavors of falafel, but without the frying. They've got a lemony tahini dressing, soft chickpeas, and a cumin-scented tomato and cucumber salad, all packed into pitas with leftover turkey (use dark or white meat). The pickled red onions give these a wonderful brightness, and they're well worth the 10 extra minutes they take to make.

PITA SANDWICH WITH TURKEY



Pita Sandwich With Turkey image

I was in the mood to try something new, and happily came up with this creation. It was a little more done up than a regular turkey sandwich, but still simple enough to make, and pleased the palettes of both my kids and husband! That makes it an instant success in this home =). It's also basic enough that you could substitute any type of meat or toppings you like, and it'd still be tasty. Hope you enjoy this one!

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 10m

Yield 1 sandwich, 1-2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 whole wheat pita bread
low-fat cream cheese or fat free cream cheese
organic spinach
organic ranch dressing
3 slices turkey breast (I used Columbus Reduced-Sodium Herb roasted turkey breast)

Steps:

  • Cut pita in half and open carefully (not to tear or poke holes in the sides).
  • Spread a layer of cream cheese on one side of the pita (inside).
  • Put turkey on top of cream cheese layer.
  • Add a layer of spinach on top of turkey, then carefully spread a layer of ranch dressing on top of the spinach and on remaining dry side of pita.
  • repeat with other pita half.
  • This would also be easy to make into a vegetarian lunch by replacing meat with other veggies (like sauteed onions, red bell peppers, etc).
