Hummus and Vegetable Pita Pockets

PUBLISHED November 29, 2022
Pita is the ideal vehicle for hummus: Spread it thickly inside slightly crisp pockets, then fill with fresh vegetables and briny feta. The recipe here gives you about 2 cups hummus, enough for a generous 1/2 cup for each sandwich.
For a lighter approach, halve the portion of hummus, refrigerate the rest for up to a few days, and finish with lettuce, olives, or more cucumbers. The variations and list that follow will inspire your own creations and include directions for handling pocketless pitas. And you can always use cannellini or fava beans to make the hummus.
