Tips:
- When choosing pita bread, look for soft and fluffy loaves that are free from tears or holes. You can also warm the pita bread in the oven or microwave before assembling the sandwich for a softer texture.

- If you don't have any hummus, you can substitute it with Greek yogurt, cream cheese, or mashed avocado.
- To add a bit of spice to the sandwich, you can add a dollop of harissa or Sriracha sauce.
- If you're packing the sandwich for lunch, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil to prevent it from getting soggy.
