 Hot Hummus Pockets
 
 
Filling:  
1 Can    Garbanzo beans rinsed and drained  
½ Cup    Sliced scallions  
½ Cup    Nonfat plain yogurt  
1 Tbs    Sesame seed paste  
1 ½ tsp    Crushed fresh garlic  
 
¼ tsp    Ground black pepper  
Pitas:  
6 Medium    Whole-wheat pita pockets  
18   Fresh spinach leaves  
3 Medium    Plum tomatoes, thinly sliced  
8 Oz    Low-fat shredded mozzarella cheese  
 
Combine all filling ingredients in a food processor bowl and process until smooth. Set aside. Cut each pita round about 2/3 of the way around the edges. Carefully open the pita and spread ¼ cup of the filling over the bottom layer. Top filling with 3 spinach leaves, then 3 slices of tomato, and ¼ cup of shredded cheese.
Coat a large nonstick skillet with olive oil cooking spray and preheat to medium. Cook sandwiches on the skillet until bread is lightly toasted and cheese is melted. (About 2 minutes per side.) Cut into 4 wedges and serve hot.
