Veggie Pita Pocket

Welcome to my world of yummy hummus and pita! And note... two pockets do fill you up.... ideal as an evening snack if you have guests coming in .... or light lunch / dinner during those lazy days when you just want to munch something and watch TV.

P.S. His all-time fav!

Cooking Time: 5 mins

Ingredients (for 2 pockets)
*Pita bread - 1
*Hummus - 4-5 tbsp
*Garden veggie pattie - 1
Dried coconut powder - 2 tbsp (Thengai podi / Chammandi podi serves the purpose)

* Available at regular grocery stores like Safeway, Ralphs, etc. I generally buy the patties from Costco... they taste exactly like the veggie cutlets served in India :)

Preparation

• Microwave the pita bread in high heat for 1 min
• Tear it into equal pieces - you will notice it has a like a pocket like opening to stuff things inside
• Spread hummus evenly inside each pocket and sprinkle some dried coconut powder
• Microwave the veggie pattie per package instructions (the Costco one takes 30 secs)
• Stuff equal amount of veggie patties inside each pita pocket
  
• Apply hummus to seal each pita bread (now filled with veggie pattie)
• Sprinkle some more dried coconut powder
  

Want to pack some to-go? Simply wrap each pocket using aluminum foil or plastic food wrap, and you're all set! :)
