For my first post I would like to share with you a delicious – and extremely easy – recipe that I found on Whole Foods’ website: Avocado, Lettuce and Tomato Pita Pockets. As a fan of all the ingredients listed so far, I barely had to read the full recipe to realize this dish would definitely become part of by daily meals. Its easy, its practical and its delicious!
In order to make this meal you will need only 10 minutes of your time and the following ingredients:
- 1 large avocado
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- Pinch fine sea salt
- Pinch ground black pepper
- 2 whole grain pita pockets
- 4 butter lettuce leaves
- 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
- 2 medium tomatoes, each cut into 4 slices
Preparation
- In a small bowl, mash avocado with vinegar, salt and pepper until smooth
- Cut pita pockets in half. Stuff pita pockets with lettuce leaves and basil
- Evenly divide avocado mixture between pita pockets, spreading it on the lettuce leaves
- Add 2 tomato slices to each pocket
Besides being extremely nutritious, this recipe requires few ingredients, and it accommodates different diets such as vegetarian and vegan. While I do enjoy vegetarian meals, I have always been crazy about protein – yes, animal protein. Therefore, for those who can relate, I would recommend adding grilled chicken or even steak if you are a meat lover.
I hope you love this recipe as much as I do. Furthermore, I hope it becomes part of your diet as it became part of mine. So enjoy and bon appétit!
