Directions
recipes I just downloaded from Cooking Light's website (sorry, my MC is down right now).
You'll have about ¾ cup of the chickpea spread left over. Serve it with baked tortilla chips for a high-carbohydrate snack.
1. Combine first 6 ingredients in a food processor; process until smooth.
Cover and chill. Combine tomato, cucumber, onion, and dressing in a bowl; cover and marinate in refrigerator 1 hour. Drain tomato mixture; discard marinade. Line each pita half with a lettuce leaf; spread each with 3 tablespoons chickpea mixture. Spoon about ⅔ cup marinated vegetables into each pita half. Yield: 4 servings.
