Ingredients
  

  • 1 large Whole-wheat pita bread halved
  • 1/2 cup Cooked chickpeas or grilled chicken breast cubed
  • 2 tbsp Tzatziki sauce store-bought or homemade
  • 1/4 cup Cucumber diced
  • 1/4 cup Cherry tomatoes halved
  • 2 tbsp Red onion thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp Kalamata olives pitted and sliced
  • 1 tbsp Crumbled feta cheese
  • Handful of fresh baby spinach

Method
 

  1. Prep the Pita: Take the pita halves and open them carefully to create pockets.
  2. Layer the Foundation: Spread 1 tablespoon of tzatziki sauce inside each pita half; this acts as a barrier to keep the bread from getting soft.
  3. Add Protein & Greens: Divide the spinach and the protein (chickpeas or grilled chicken) between the two pita pockets.
  4. Incorporate Fresh Veg: Layer in the diced cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onions, and Kalamata olives.
  5. Final Touch: Top each pocket with a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese and a remaining dollop of tzatziki for extra moisture.
  6. Assemble: Place the stuffed pita halves in your bento box. Fill side compartments with extra cucumber slices or a few whole-wheat crackers to complete the meal.
  7. Storage: Keep refrigerated until ready to consume.
