Steps:
- Combine the chickpeas, water, cheese, lemon juice, salt and red pepper flakes in a food processor and puree until completely smooth, about 5 minutes. While the motor is running, pour in the olive oil and process until fully incorporated and velvety. Season with pepper, to taste.
- Spoon a scant tablespoon bean spread into toasted pitas. (Put remaining bean spread in an air-tight container.) Add avocado and cucumber slices, or other vegetables of choice and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Wrap in parchment or butcher paper, and pack in a plastic container to keep from getting squished. Pack in a lunch box and send to school.

Crunchy with crisp vegetables and nutty sunflower kernels, they're a fast-to-fix lunch when you're on the go. -Linda Reeves, Cloverdale, Indiana

FRESH VEGGIE PITA POCKET
This fresh sandwich is a delicious way to enjoy farm fresh natural ingredients. The ingredients can be changed to match you own personal flavor along with utilizing different dressings or vinaigrettes.

- In a medium bowl, mix together all ingredients for dill yogurt sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Wrap a damp paper towel around the pita bread and microwave until just warmed (about 10 seconds per pita). This will make it more malleable and less likely to break.
- To assemble the sandwiches, layer about 2-3 tablespoons of the hummus, yogurt sauce, and tabbouleh, with some greens, tomato, and carrots, in that order, on each pita. Carefully wrap the pita around the ingredients. If it seems too messy or like it's going to break, wrap it in foil or parchment to keep it together.

- Start by smearing a layer of low-fat mayo or hummus on a tortilla wrap, lettuce leaf, rice wrap, or in a pita pocket. I like to make mine nice and thick to add lots of creamy texture and flavors.
- Use any spread you like store-bought or homemade, but I have included a list above with some of my favorite spreads for making veggie wraps, and they all require only a few ingredients and a blender.
- Pile the wrap full of your favorite veggies. Some of my personal favorite things to add are pre-shredded cabbage or broccoli slaw, bean sprouts, and shredded carrots.
- If you want to add a little more flavor, a simple drizzle of lime juice will do the trick. But, there are plenty of sauces that also go well with veggie wraps, and I've listed some of my personal favorites above.
