Pronounced (pahn bahn-YAHT) it's a traditional sandwich from Nice, France. Basically a salad on a bun, except here the bun is replaced with a pita pocket(although you are free to use a bun if you like). It works nicely, holding in all the ingredients and lovely juices. What seems like a simple sandwich is actually full of flavor. This is gluten free if eaten witha gluten free pita pocket or just as a salad. Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) can garbanzo beans, lightly mashed |
1 1/4 cups chopped romaine lettuce |
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halves |
1/2 medium red onion |
1 (2 ounce) jar diced pimentos |
1 garlic clove, minced |
8 basil leaves, chopped |
2 tablespoons capers (optional) |
1/4 cup red wine vinegar |
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
1 teaspoon sugar |
5 pita pockets |
Directions:
1. Place prepared beans, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, pimentos, garlic, basil and capers into mixing bowl.
2. Wisk together vinegar, oil and sugar. Pour over vegetables and toss.
3. To serve stuff each pita pocket with 3/4 cup of mixture.
