This chicken salad pita was created by six-year-old West Mylroie of Santa Clara, Utah. It is spruced up with a peanut hummus made with prepared hummus, peanut butter, paprika and lemon juice. The chicken, green onion and tomato would also pair nicely with a homemade Almond Hummus if you prefer. Yields four servings.

- 1 large tomato, seeded and diced
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 2 large pita pockets
Preparation
- In a small bowl, combine paprika, hummus, peanut butter and lemon juice.
- Transfer half of peanut butter mixture to medium bowl and combine with green onion, chicken, tomato and cilantro. Fill pitas with chicken mixture.
- Cut into 8 triangles and serve with remaining peanut hummus.
- Garnish sandwiches and hummus with a sprinkle of smoked paprika, if desired.
