HUMMUS, ARTICHOKE, AND TOMATO PITA SANDWICH
This sandwich is a combo of all my favorites...hummus, tomatoes, artichokes,pita bread, and cheese. What's not to love?! I like it both cold or warm, just depends on what I'm in the mood for. Its perfect for a light lunch or cut it into wedges and serve as an appetizer. Make sure you don't bypass toasting the pita bread. I'm not sure why, but it makes all the difference in taste and texture. I've used both commercially prepared and homemade hummus. They both work fine, but if you have the time definitely go with your own mix. Otherwise give Gingerbee's Hummus Amongus (#22060) a whirl...yum! If you don't have gruyere cheese, any plain old swiss works just fine. Enjoy!

YUMMY AND NUTRITIOUS HUMMUS PITA SANDWICH
Quick to make and delicious to eat! I wrap them in foil and take them to work with me. If I have flavored baked tofu, I'll add slices of that, and any other veggies taste good as well. A satisfying and nutritious lunch!

Steps:
- Cut off a small piece of the pita so you can reach inside. Sometimes I microwave the pita for a few seconds-it makes it more flexible to put things inside without breaking!
- With a spoon or knife, spread inside with hummus.
- Thinly slice cucumber and tomato and place inside, with red onion.
- If you are using avocado, mash it up with a knife and spread on inside top of pita-it makes it easier!
- Stuff the spinach in-it's easiest if you dice it first. Enjoy!

Tips:
- For a creamier hummus, use full-fat Greek yogurt. You can also use a blender or food processor to get a smoother consistency.
- If you don't have marinated artichoke hearts, you can use canned artichoke hearts and marinate them yourself. Simply combine the artichoke hearts with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs in a bowl and let them sit for at least 30 minutes.
- You can use any type of pita bread you like for this sandwich. Whole wheat pita bread is a healthy option, or you can use a more traditional white pita bread.
- If you don't have fresh tomatoes, you can use sun-dried tomatoes or roasted tomatoes.
- If you're looking for a vegetarian protein option, you can add grilled tofu or tempeh to this sandwich.
- This sandwich is also great for meal prep. Simply assemble the sandwiches ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
