Warm the Pita Bread: - While the dip chills, warm the pita bread in a toaster or on a stovetop pan until soft and pliable. Assemble the Pita Sandwich:- Slice the warm pita in half to create pockets.- Generously spread the Knorr Spinach Dip inside each pita half.- Add slices of cucumber, tomato, and grated carrots for a crunchy texture.
