I love tahini sauce and pita sandwiches! I adapted this recipe slightly from one I found in Vegetarian Times.

I am always looking for healthy items for a lunch meal. I found this recipe good. I think I want to play with the tahini sauce till I get it to my liking. I also found I was shoving way to much into the pita. But otherwise this was a good meal in place of a sandwich. And I liked I was using only vegetables and healthy stuff. You can't beat that.

This was a delicious lunch and very filling, Little Miss and I ate this up before we left to go to town and it was so filling that we didn't need to pick up a snack. I really enjoyed the Tahini sauce. Thank you Enjolinfam - *Made for Zaar World Tour 4*
