What is Za’atar?
Za’atar [ZAH-tahr] is a Middle Eastern
spice blend that contains a variety of
dried herbs, sesame seeds, and sumac.
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°. Coat two
baking sheets with nonstick spray.
Combine 3 Tbsp. oil, 4 tsp. za’atar,
and garlic; spread on eggplant slices.
Arrange slices on prepared baking
sheets in a single layer and roast until
tender, 15 minutes, flipping halfway
through. Wrap pitas in foil; transfer
to oven to heat through, 10 minutes.
Whisk together lemon juice, remaining
1 Tbsp. oil, and remaining ½ tsp. za’atar
for the vinaigrette; season with salt
and pepper.
Spread 2 Tbsp. hummus on each pita.
Top pitas with eggplant slices, tomatoes,
and romaine; drizzle with vinaigrette.
