Instructions
- In large bowl, mix yogurt, garlic, lemon juice and cumin. Add all remaining ingredients except pitas and cheese.
- Tuck one pita half into the other for a sturdier sandwich. Spoon bean mixture into pitas. Top with cheese. Or for soft pitas, spoon the mixture onto the whole pitas and fold over to eat.
