Pita & Fresh Garden Filling

Hummus & Tahini Sauce

Method

Pita & Fresh Garden Filling

  1. 1

    Warm pita pockets

    Warm the pita pockets in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side, or wrap in foil and warm in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 3-5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prep veggies and herbs

    Dice cucumber, halve cherry tomatoes, thinly slice red onion, and rinse and dry mixed greens. Chop parsley for sprinkling.

  3. 3

    Make dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create a bright dressing.

  4. 4

    Toss veggies with dressing

    In a large bowl, toss cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, greens, and parsley with the dressing until evenly coated. Crumble feta and fold in if using.

Hummus & Tahini Sauce

  1. 5

    Make hummus-tahini sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk hummus, tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, and water until smooth. Season with salt and optional paprika or sumac. Adjust thickness with more water if needed.

  2. 6

    Assemble

    Open each pita, spread a thin layer of the hummus-tahini sauce inside, then fill with the garden filling. Drizzle with any remaining dressing and garnish with parsley or feta if desired.
