MMMm-mm! Hard to split this between four people! Actually I just made a quarter of it and was left wishing for more. :-) Instead of toasting the pita beforehand, I stuck the whole sandwich under the broiler for a minute. Extra delish. Thanks for posting!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I've recently completed my undergrad degree, and I'm taking some time off before returning to grad school. I've done lots of cooking since graduating, and I continue to collect more recipes than I could ever possibly make.
I'm a vegetarian, and I try to make environmentally sustainable and socially conscious food choices, using local, organic, and fair trade products whenever possible. I believe that any food experience should be enjoyed holistically, with appreciation for the flavour, texture, smell, and appearance of a dish, and consideration for where the ingredients have come from and the processes they've undergone before arriving in my kitchen.
I discovered earlier this year that I have Celiac Disease and a dairy intolerance, so I'm learning new ways to cook and eat in a world full of wheat and dairy. A sad goodbye to sandwiches, pizza, beer, and cinnamon buns.
