Ingredients

    4 khobez (wholemeal flatbreads, like single-layer pittas)
    170g tub light guacamole
    160g spinach, steamed, water squeezed out, chopped and seasoned
    2 chicken breasts, cooked and diced
    150g ball mozzarella, shredded
    50g cheddar, grated
    200g tomatoes
    1 garlic clove
    30g rocket or arugala

Directions

Thickly slice the tomatoes, season, top with little slices of garlic and a sprinkle of oregano and place in an oven at 75C for 2-3 hours until semi-dried. (Alternatively, use an equivalent quantity of ready-made sunblush tomatoes.)

Heat a frying pan or grill pan on a medium heat.

Dampen both sides of the first flatbread with a little water on your fingertips and put it in the hot pan.

When it's lightly toasted on one side, turn it over. Spread a quarter of the guacamole onto it, then arrange a quarter of the mozzarella, chicken, spinach, tomatoes and cheddar on top and keep heating.

When the mozzarella is just starting to melt, add a quarter of the rocket/arugala and fold the flatbread over, and slide onto a plate (or onto a baking sheet to place in the oven to keep warm until you've finished!)

Repeat with the other three flatbreads.
