{ARTICHOKE SPINACH PITAS}


We sometimes use pitas for this and sometimes use flatbread wraps.  Both are available at most grocery stores.

1 15-oz. can Northern White Beans, drained and rinsed
1 14-oz. can artichoke hearts, coarsely chopped
1/4 c. garlic salad dressing (we use Good Season's Italian, made the lowfat way)
1/4 t. pepper
1 bag baby spinach
falafels (optional, but we've never had these without them)*
6 whole wheat pitas or flatbreads

  • Combine first 4 ingredients in a bowl.
To serve:
  • Put about 1 c. spinach in pita or flatbread
  • Add about 1/2 c. bean mix
  • Crumble up 2 or 3 falafels on top
*We use the falafel mix made by Fantastic.  It's available at most health food stores.  I follow the broiling directions, but instead of brushing them with oil I just spray a little cooking spray over the pan.

This looks really good. UFood Grill just opened in Draper. It is 'healthy' fast food. We ate there last week, and the food was very good. Here is the menu, http://www.ufoodgrill.com/menu/

Thanks for the link Austin. I just checked out the menu and the food looks really good. Next time we're in Utah we'll have to check it out.
