This is a pita recipe with a sauce of techina (that's what they say in the Middle East for tahini or tahini) and chickpeas. A vegan pita bread recipe with an Israeli, Lebanese or Syrian edge. The oven-baked chickpeas fill the pita bread nicely with just the right flavors and textures. An easy vegan recipe that keeps you vegan when you use our vegan pesto di pomodori. You put the chickpeas in the oven, meanwhile make the sauce and cut the vegetables, bake the pita, and voilà: Middle Eastern pita breads that make you happy!
