I love tahini sauce and pita sandwiches! I adapted this recipe slightly from one I found in Vegetarian Times. Ingredients:
1 cup low-fat plain yogurt or 1 cup nonfat plain yogurt |
2 tablespoons tahini |
1 garlic clove |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
salt, to taste |
4 large whole wheat pita bread |
8 ounces feta cheese |
4 tomatoes, plum, ripe and diced |
1 cup spinach leaves, fresh and torn into bite-sized pieces |
1 cup alfalfa sprout |
1 large avocado, ripe, halved, pitted, peeled and cut into wedges |
1 cucumber, diced |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, mix all sauce ingredients until blended.
2. Slice an edge from each pita bread, and carefully open pockets.
3. In a medium bowl, combine feta, tomatoes, and spinach. Add 1/4 cup of sauce, and toss gently to mix. Spoon the mixture into each pocket.
4. Divide sprouts, cucumber, and avocado among the sandwiches. Drizzle each with about 1 Tbsp of tahini sauce.
5. Serve right away.
