Hummus Pita Recipes

A delicious meat free sandwich!
Each pita has only 60 calories and 6 grams of protein--these are a staple in my house.

A yummy pita wrap filled with fresh veggies, hummus, feta cheese, and ceasar dressing.

No need for cheese with the cilantro-laced hummus that holds the pita quesadillas together. Serve with salsa.

If you love pita bread and hummus, you will LOVE this pizza!! It combines pita, and hummus into a healthy, nutritious meal!

Delicious marinated chicken breast wrapped with toasted pita that's been smothered with tomato-basil hummus. Don't forget the squeeze of lemon!

super easy Greek style personal pan pizza - great for lunch or dinner

Generic hummus dip with pita. If you're new to hummus, start with this and then experiment with varying the ingredients to your personal preference.
All amounts are approximate due natural variation in flavor strength in lemons, garlic, and tahini.

Great for lunch or after workout snack, high in protein and fiber. I recommend Father Sam's Whole Wheat pitas if they are available in your area. Just make sure whatever pitas you purchase are under 200 calories and have some protein and a good amount of fiber. Use whatever veggies you like, this is my particularly favorite combo.

Easy & simple throw together vegetarian lunch or light dinner. I like the Joseph's brand of middle eastern products. They are lower in cals, fat, & sodium than their competitors and I find them to be very tasty. This throw together recipe creates a very nice sized sandwich. It is very filling and is packed with fiber, vitamins, & minerals that we need. You may decide that you only want to use a 1/2 cup of spinach to make the sandwich more manageable. I like all the nutrients 1 cup of spinach gives me and, after I squeeze the water out, the bulkiness of the spinach is greatly reduced.

You can easily split this with someone, cutting your nutritional info in half. Add some fresh cut fruit for dessert and you have a wonderfully satisfying and nutrtionally rich meal.

I forgot to take a picture so you can see the layering and how appetizing it is. I will upload it in a couple of days when I make another one.

From the Jillian Michaels plan. Putting it all in one half will reduce calories by 80.

This keeps me full all afternoon! Plus, this meal gives you 15 grams of non-animal protein.
