These Chicken Avocado Pitas are healthy and filling, and taste just as great if they were packed full of calories.
This is one of our absolute favorite healthy summer sandwiches.
{{Ingredients}}
½ lb shredded cooked rotisserie chicken
2 avocados cut into small pieces
½ c plain Greek yogurt
1 t cilantro
1 t garlic salt
6-8 cherry tomatoes
4 slices of thin baby Swiss cheese
Juice from half a lemon
4 whole wheat pita pockets
1 tsp. extra virgin olive oil
{{Instructions}}
1. Put 1 piece of Swiss cheese into each pita pocket.
2. In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt and garlic salt. Set aside.
3. In a medium bowl, combine avocado, quartered tomatoes, lemon juice, and half of the cilantro. Set aside. In a skillet, brown the cooked chicken with the olive oil over medium heat for 3-4 minutes. While cooking, sprinkle with half of the cilantro.
4. Take off of heat and add ¼ of the chicken to each pita.
5. Top the chicken with a drizzle of the yogurt mixture followed by a large spoonful of the avocado mixture, all within the pita pocket. Can be served cold, or grilled on a sandwich maker/foreman grill for 2 minutes to serve warm.
