This was a winning combination in many categories: taste, color, nutrition. I made my own hummus and used Arabian Pita Bread for pita. Fresh cucumbers and tomatoes from our garden; greens and scallions from the farmer's market. Served with a fresh seasonal fruit salad for a simple, delicious meal. If you want to get technical, this is in fact a vegan recipe. Reviewed for Ramadan Tag 2009.

This reminds me of salads I eat most nights, only incorporating it onto a pita and adding some hummus. I cut this recipe down for 1 and it's really filling Followed every ingredient you had listed Mike..but I can see incorporating any type veggie into this sammy. This recipe is also reminescent of the Mediterrean veggie sandwich you get at Panera's. (they do there's on bread). Great lunch~ Made for PRMR.
