Makes four sandwiches
4 whole-wheat pita pockets
8 to 9 slices ripe, firm, beefsteak tomatoes
8 thin slices medium red onion, halved
About 1 cup baby arugula, washed and spun dry
1/3 cup hummus (your favorite brand or homemade)
Advance preparation for a pita pocket:
Cut the pita pocket in half and stuff into a zip-lock plastic sandwich bag.
Core and halve a tomato, place the cut side down on a cutting board and cut into one-quarter-inch thick slices. Wrap two slices for each half of the pocket in plastic wrap and slip them into a zip lock bag for extra insurance. Likewise, cut the onion into as thin a slice as possible, wrap in plastic and slip them in bag with the tomato. Stuff the arugula into a separate plastic bag. Fill a small plastic container with hummus and securely seal the lid.
Another combo; Slices of green or red bell pepper, cheddar cheese, and marinated artichoke hearts with a few drops of mustard vinaigrette drizzled on top.
