Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Whole-grain pita bread (or gluten-free pita if needed)
- 4 tablespoons Hummus
- 0.5 medium piece Cucumber
- 6 pieces Cherry tomatoes
- 4 pieces Kalamata olives (pitted)
- 0.25 medium piece Red onion
- 2 leaves Romaine lettuce leaves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Slice the cucumber into thin rounds and the cherry tomatoes into halves. Finely chop the red onion and fresh parsley.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, lemon juice, and black pepper to create a light dressing.
Cut the pita bread in half to create pockets. If the pockets seem too tight, gently loosen the edges to make room for the fillings.
Spread 1 tablespoon of hummus inside each half pita pocket for a creamy and flavorful base.
Stuff each pita pocket with a lettuce leaf, cucumber slices, cherry tomato halves, and chopped red onion.
Add 2 Kalamata olives to each pocket for a burst of Mediterranean flavor.
Drizzle the light olive oil and lemon dressing evenly over the stuffed ingredients in the pockets.
Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for added freshness and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your sugar-free, vegan Mediterranean sandwich!
