Directions:
1.Gather and chop all of your ingredients for the filling! Be sure to add the juice of half a lime to the avocado slices. Again, you don’t have to use all of these veggies; play around and use whatever you have in your fridge or whatever you think will go well together. Place them in different bowls as you see fit.
2.To make the vinaigrette, take a quarter of the avocado you sliced and put them in a bowl and mash them. Then, add two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to the avocado, along with all of the balsamic vinegar, apple cider vinegar, mustard, a honey, everything bagel seasoning, orange and lime zest to taste, the lime juice, and the dehydrated chopped onion. Mix this thoroughly while gradually adding a tablespoon of oil. Then, add salt and black pepper to taste, mix again, and the vinaigrette is ready!
3.To make the yogurt based dressing, add the yogurt to the bowl, along with all of the measured ingredients, and mix well. It’s as easy as that!
4.To assemble a pita pocket, add all of the veggies you chopped for the filling to half a pita pocket, along with some crushed pecans and the cranberries. Choose either or both of the dressings to add as liberally as you would like.
5.Your fresh, delicious, easy pita pocket is ready! Enjoy it fresh.
