Quick lunch: Veggie pita pocket

By Mayo Clinic Staff

Want a new lunch idea? Try pita bread stuffed with fresh veggies. In a small bowl, toss together chopped cauliflower and broccoli florets, sliced green onions, diced tomatoes and cucumbers. Cut a whole-wheat pita in half and fill each side with the vegetables and 1 tablespoon crumbled feta cheese. Warm the pita in the microwave for about 40 seconds. Top with 1 1/2 teaspoons low-fat ranch salad dressing.
