Israeli Quick and Easy Lunch
My standard lunch when I worked in Tiberias on a dig. Very healthy, filling and fast. Can be eaten hot or cold and allows for many variations making this a flexible, nutritious meal.

DIRECTIONS
- Slice open one end of the pita to open the pocket.
- With a knife or spatula, spread hummus inside, making sure to cover all of the pocket.
- Slice the hard-boiled egg, tomato, cucumber, mushrooms and olives and layer into the pita.
- Add the onion and leafy greens.
- Shake in seasonings.
- If eating hot, either place on the grill or hot oven for no more than 5 minutes or microwave on Medium for up to 2 minutes.
- You can also add cheese if desired.
- Other combinations of veggies, such as asparagus or eggplant (especially breaded and pan-fried) can make this into a dinner option, too.
