Middle Eastern Pita Pocket Sandwiches

For filling, in a large skillet cook onion and 4 cloves of the garlic in ¼ cup water over medium 10 minutes or until onion is golden, stirring occasionally. (Don't add water; you want the onion to brown.) Add the next five ingredients (through cumin). Cook 10 minutes or until eggplant is tender, stirring occasionally. 2. For tahini sauce, in a bowl stir together tahini, lemon juice, parsley, the remaining 3 cloves minced garlic, and ¼ cup water until smooth. Season with salt. Stir in additional water if needed to reach drizzling consistency. 3. Open pita halves to make pockets. Spread hummus in pockets. Add ⅓ cup each lettuce and vegetable filling to each pita pocket. Just before serving, drizzle filling with tahini sauce.
