Instructions
1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. To prepare the ingredients, slice the red onion and thinly slice the red capsicum. Peel the zucchini into ribbons. Cut the lemon into wedges and finely chop the parsley. Lastly, halve the wholemeal pita pockets crossways.

2

Heat the olive oil in a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Cook red onion and red capsicum for 2-3 minutes, or until soft. Add the zucchini and continue cooking for a further 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and the juice of half the lemon wedges over the top. Stir through the parsley. Remove from the pan and set aside.

3

Meanwhile, place the falafels and pita pockets on a lined oven tray, and cook in the oven for 5 minutes or until heated through. Tip: You may need two oven trays.

4

Assemble the pita pockets by spooning vegetables in first, then top with the falafels and hummus. Serve with extra lemon wedges. Enjoy!
