Ingredients:

Serving

4 pieces whole wheat pita bread (large ones work best )

1 cup fresh spinach leaves , torn into bite-sized pieces
4 plum tomatoes, diced
1 large avocado, halved, pitted, peeled, and cut into thin wedges
1 cup mixed sprouts (i like mung bean sprouts, for the crunch)

1 tsp lemon juice
1 small garlic clove, crushed
salt , to taste
