This lunch, a combination of carbohydrates (from the whole grain pita) and protein (from the cheese) will help you store energy to use later in the day, thereby dispelling that late-afternoon urge to doze.
Ingredients
Preparation
In small bowl, mash together cream and Cheddar cheeses, shredded carrot and pepper until blended.
Cut top quarter of each pita and tuck inside bottom of pita. Spread half of the cheese mixture inside each; fill with cucumber and sprouts. (Pita pockets can be wrapped in plastic wrap and refrigerated or stored in cooler pack for up to 24 hours.)
Additional information :
Tip: Spread some hummus or homemade baba ghanoush on the pitas before the cheese mixture. Or substitute 1/2 cup (125 mL) shredded turkey or chicken leftovers for the cheese.
