Vegeterian Tips: Many upscale food chains have either one or the other, or both salad and soup bars. Salad bars are great for vegetarians, but be careful not to overload on dressings, croutons, nuts, or cheese. Be sure to check with your server about the soups available and that they are bean based, with no meat. If there is nothing else available, salad and soup bars can make a hearty and tasty meal.
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 4 pita”s
- oil
- onions
- canned tomatoes
- garlic
- canned kidney beans
- bean sprouts
- cucumbe
- salsa or garlic sauce
- any kind of beans you can find
Directions:
Put some oil in a frying pan, add the chopped onions (as much as you like), add the canned tomatoes
with their juice, add the minced garlic, the beans, some mexican-spice mix (a lot if you ask me) let it simmer for awhile
until everything is really warmed.
Put the pita”s in a pre-heated oven (200 C) for 5 minutes.(this is the way you can buy them in Holland
I don”t know if that”s the case in the US, but just use pita”s you know…)
Take them out, slice them open, put some lettuce, sliced cucumber and slices of
fresh tomatoe in, add the bean-mixture.
Top all of this with some salsa or garlic-sause if you like.
It”s a bit tacky to eat, stuff keeps dripping on your fingers and hands but
it”s heavenly and if you don”t use much sauce almost no calories…
Enjoy.
Serves: 4
Preparation time: 20 min.
