Ingredients
- 4 whole wheat pitas
- 2 large carrots, shredded
- 1 large cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or hummus
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
- Fresh dill or parsley for garnish
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparing the Slaw
Start by combining the shredded carrots and sliced cucumber in a large bowl. In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt or hummus with lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to coat evenly. Garnish with chopped dill or parsley for added flavor.
Assembling the Wraps
Cut the pita pockets in half if desired. Spread a spoonful of the slaw inside each pita. Add extra vegetables or herbs if you like. For a creamier texture, you can also add a dollop of Greek yogurt or hummus inside the pita before adding the slaw.
Once filled, fold the pita around the slaw to create a portable, crunchy wrap. Serve immediately for the best texture, or wrap in foil for an on-the-go lunch.
