    This looked great but was Not Nice! One of those things you force yourself to finish because you know it's really good for you, not because it tastes good. Incredibly messy to eat as well and really doesn't transport well in a lunchbox.

    I was suprised with this, I am not a huge fan of raw carrot although i enjoyed this. Pitta breads are very dry although the yoghurt dressing was very nice to counteract this. I though the pockets tasted lovely and was easy to make. To keep everything in the pitta, wrap tighlty in clingfilm for transporting to work etc.
