Lunch mashups are so fun to create and also to eat. I loved turning this salad into a sandwich with just a few different ingredients. What are some of your favorite food mashups?

I love a good pita pocket sandwich. But I also love a good chicken caesar salad. So I thought it would be a winning combination to serve them both together. It’s perfectly paired with these pita pockets. The crunch from the lettuce and the soft pita pockets are a delicious match. You could add other veggies if you’d like. These little sandwiches are a healthy, filling lunch.
