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.

VEGETABLES-AND-DIP PITA POCKET
Children can enjoy the fun combination in these pita pocket sandwiches. Each bite delivers the crunch of vegetables and the creaminess of dip. Sweet pickles add a little excitement to each bite. You can swap the standard pairing of carrots and celery for other crunchy vegetables you enjoy raw, like fennel, cucumber or peppers.

FRESH VEGGIE POCKETS
One summer I worked at a health food store that sold sandwiches. We were close to a college campus, so I made lots of these fresh-filled pitas for the students. Crunchy with crisp vegetables and nutty sunflower kernels, they're a fast-to-fix lunch when you're on the go. -Linda Reeves, Cloverdale, Indiana
