In a large bowl, combine, cabbage, carrots, green onion, 4 tbsp olive oil and lemon juice. Mix well. Season coleslaw with salt and pepper. Set aside. In another bowl, season turkey with cumin, salt and pepper, and lemon zest. Heat remaining 2 tbsp of olive oil in a pan. Sauté seasoned turkey and sliced onions stirring often until turkey is fully cooked and golden crisp. Gently warm the pita either in the microwave or oven. Cut the top 1” from each pita and open the pockets. Spread the inside of each pita with hummus. Next, spoon the coleslaw mixture to fill 1/3 of each pita. Divide the turkey mixture evenly between the four pita. Add chopped tomatoes and cucumbers. Top with coleslaw mixture again to fill each pita and then spoon tahini and hot sauce (if using) evenly over the four pitas. Enjoy! Source: turkeyrecipes.ca
