Brain Power Pita Pockets

Definitely health food. I think it is quite tasty, but if you are not used to such light, vegetarian fare, you may not like it. From a Joyva tahini ad.

• Ready In: 15 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 4  pieces  whole wheat pita bread (large ones work best)
• 8  ounces soft tofu (I use extra firm silken and it is perfect)
• 1  cup fresh spinach leaves, torn into bite-sized pieces
• 4  plum tomatoes, diced (I use quartered cherry tomatoes)
• 1  large avocado, halved, pitted, peeled, and cut into thin wedges
• 1  cup  mixed sprouts (I like mung bean sprouts, for the crunch)

• Tahini sauce

• 1  cup low-fat yogurt or 1  cup nonfat plain yogurt
• 2  tablespoons tahini (I like a little extra)
• 1  teaspoon lemon juice
• 1  small garlic clove, crushed
•  salt, to taste

Directions

1. In a small bowl, mix all sauce ingredients until blended.
2. Slice an edge from each pita bread, and carefully open pockets.
3. In a medium bowl, combine tofu, tomatoes, and spinach. Add 1/4 cup of sauce and toss gently to mix.
4. Spoon the mixture into each pocket.
5. Divide sprouts and avocado among the sandwiches.
6. Drizzle each with 1 Tbs of tahini sauce. Serve right away.
