This is very flavourful and easy to put together. Next time, I'll add another cup of spinach and do 1/4 cup chopped olives.

This is the biggest surprise for me on PUL so far… I just love it!!! Amazing and rich flavours😍😍😍 This is just unbelievable that it is filled with so many healthy stuff like parsley, which has a strong flavour itself… and it tastes soooo delicious, you dont feel parsley at all (game changer for my boyfriend who doesnt like parsley) thank you for this!!!!❤️❤️❤️

Woohoo! Thanks for sharing the glowing review, Paulina, it means a lot that the pita pockets recipe is being enjoyed ☺️


Karen Hill - Sept. 11, 2024, 3:58 p.m.

Very delicious and rich - used wraps instead of pitta - was lovely 👌🏻


Yasmine - Sept. 8, 2024, 5:53 p.m.

Wow these were amazing! So packed with flavor 😋😋😋 I forgot the green onions so made them without but added chickpeas to the spinach filling to add more protein. Yum yum yum!

First time I made it with home made pita bread. Second time I just swapped pita's for filo pastry and made it burek style. So good both ways.

So easy and fast yet absolutely delicious!!!


Johanna - May 18, 2024, 3:41 p.m.

Blissful

This is one of my favourites so far! Easy to make and tastes amazing! I love the balance between the chilli flakes and the soy yoghurt sauce. Will make this again within two weeks, that's for sure.

So thrilled that the spinach pita pockets were enjoyed, Bálint!


Kinga - Jan. 9, 2024, 7:32 p.m.

It was delicious!! I love that there’s so many herbs in this recipe. I used tortillas instead of pitas. :)


Sambavi - Jan. 6, 2024, 10:47 p.m.

I have been wanting to incorporate more spinach and greens into my meals, and this was such a flavorful way to do so. With such a symphony of ingredients, each bite was different from the next, making it a joy to eat!

So glad to hear that the spinach pita pockets were enjoyed, Sambavi, thank you! 😊

Incredible delicious 💕


Elle - Sept. 18, 2023, 1:53 a.m.

Loved this and it came together very quickly.


catherine - Sept. 12, 2023, 11:36 p.m.

Soooo good and easy.


Adeline - Aug. 13, 2023, 8:21 p.m.

Delicious ! And also so quick to prepare ! The taste of the spinach preparation is amazing 🤩


Andrew - Aug. 7, 2023, 9:09 p.m.

Filling, delicious and messy!


Olja - Aug. 4, 2023, 6:03 a.m.

Liked cooking so many greens!!! Loved it as a takeaway lunch. One tip for improvement of the cooking directions: I ended up with tons of washing as I put all chopped herbs in separate bowls. Would be good to point out that the chopped spinach, parsley, mint etc can all go into the same bowl for ease of cooking! Thanks so much for the recipe!


André - July 29, 2023, 2:11 p.m.

I don't get what these 3 and 4 star ratings are about, this was INCREDIBLE! So much flavour. Will definitely be making these again!

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 30, 2023, 7:23 p.m.

Aw thanks a bunch, André! Enjoy the pita pockets 😊


jente - July 29, 2023, 1:46 p.m.

Very nice


Louise - July 22, 2023, 12:03 p.m.

Nice mix of tastes


Michelle S. - July 21, 2023, 1:28 p.m.

Very rich and surprisingly filling. I ran out of sun dried tomatoes in oil, so I sautéed regular sun dried tomatoes and it turned out great. I definitely recommend pairing with a light salad with a bright dressing to offset the richness of this dish.


Juliana - July 20, 2023, 1:27 p.m.

Easy to assemble and super delicious!


Andrea Bryant - July 18, 2023, 8:11 a.m.

As I was making this I was unsure of if this would fill me up but… it did. Was delicious. I seriously munched this down and it was easy to make. ❤️❤️


Diana Carvalho - July 18, 2023, 12:57 a.m.

So easy and so delicious
tip: add mushrooms


Emely Anaya - July 15, 2023, 11:21 p.m.

Great flavors but would love more protein in this

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 17, 2023, 8:13 a.m.

Hey Emely, thanks for the feedback 🤗 in case it helps, some ideas to add more protein include adding seeds such as hemp seeds, nuts such as pine nuts, nutritional yeast, chickpeas, lentils, or crumbled tofu!


Anum Saleem - July 14, 2023, 4:44 p.m.

They turned out perfect! 😍 The whole process of getting the groceries, prepping the ingredients and making these spinach feta pockets was super easy and seamless. I can’t wait to try more recipes! Also, the app is just phenomenal! 👏👏👏

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 14, 2023, 9:37 p.m.

Oh, Anum, this is so lovely to hear! Thank you for the support 🥹 Happy nourishing 💛


dave kapsch - July 12, 2023, 3:16 p.m.

I am not a fan of mint but did put some in both sauce and spinach filling. We unfortunately don’t live near where we could get feta but it is a tasty dish without it even.


Katie - July 11, 2023, 5:26 p.m.

One of my new favorite recipes, quick and easy to make but so tasty and flavorful. Absolutely loved it.


Jaclyn - June 27, 2023, 1:42 a.m.

This was the first thing I’ve cooked from the PUL app and it was delicious! I used my food processor to mince all the herbs and spinach, and when you add it to the pan, it doesn’t look like it will be very filling. But once you put the sandwich together, it’s a perfect, very satisfying dinner. I added some chopped fresh tomatoes into the pita as well. Loved it!

So happy to hear, Jaclyn, it means so much 🤗
