i’m starting something new, a monday phone dump. by the time monday rolls around i have taken so many cell phone pictures that very rarely get shared, sometimes they make it to facebook but most of the time they stay in my phone. it usually just paints a picture of how our weekend was. so here we go…
- i got my hair done, hmm. well my blonde locks were supposed to have some caramel low lights, i think my stylist ran out of that color and prayed the top color would match but it turned out chocolate. i kinda like it, kinda don’t. i never really care, it’s hair & it grows…
- i had two cupcake orders. a baby shower and a thank you gift to an ivf doctor.
- we made it to happy hour friday night after picking daddy up from the airport, a special treat because we rarely go out as a family. had a 90% blowout. fun.
- brayden is finally getting chubby legs. i cannot.stand.it. i lurve me some chubbs.
- i got my nails done, went back to shellac vs. acrylic.
- ran my first 5k. more on that one later
greek pita’s
what you’ll need:
(i am not giving measurements, i am giving suggestions as to what i used. everyone likes theirs a different way)
whole wheat pitas (i use ezekiel – less calories and they come frozen so you don’t waste them)
baby spinach
thinly sliced onion
thinly sliced tomato
olive tapenade (trader joes – found by the hummus not the jarred variety)
hummus (i used original from tj’s, roasted pepper or garlic would be amazing)
dry salami
feta cheese
*reduced sodium turkey (not pictured, but the next day i added this)
here’s how:
- if you buy frozen pita’s remove from the freezer and defrost on a paper towel (don’t get lazy and pop them in the microwave, they’ll get soggy. not sayin’ i’m lazy or anything)
- cut your pita in half. carefully open the pocket up.
- on one side of the pita spread the tapenade, on the other the hummus.
- next lay the meat, veggies and then cheese.
- serve with a light salad, some chips, a cup of tomato bisque or by itself.
- enjoy!
i am not even kidding you when i say this is tasty. the tapenade is the perfect addition and takes this sandwich over the top. you won’t regret adding this to your lunch rotation.
