Number Of Ingredients 9

1 sandwich pita
hummus
red onions
cucumber
romaine lettuce
tomatoes, diced
feta cheese
sliced black olives
Greek dressing

Steps:

  • Instructions1. Thinly slice & dice red onions. Quarter and slice cucumbers. Chop romaine. Dice tomatoes.2. Spread hummus on the insides of the pita slices. (I use a sandwich pita which is a pita in the shape of a bun so you have a top and bottom. So with one sandwich pita, I can make two open-faced sandwiches. If you prefer to use a more typical pocket pita, you can simple line the insides with hummus and stuff the ingredients in the pocket vs. making an open-faced sandwich. Either way - delicious.)3. Top each pita slice with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, feta, black olives and greek dressing.
