Veggie Pitas with Hummus
“I’m not lying when I say this is one of the top 5 favorite sandwiches I’ve had in my life!! I was skeptical when I saw there was no cheese or meat in the recipe — how can it really be called a sandwich without those two?? That was a completely silly thought of mine. It turns out that not only can it be called a sandwich, it can be called a downright amazing one!” Get the recipe by Kitschen Cat here.
