  2. Open four pita breads carefully to create pockets without tearing through their bottoms.
  3. Divide the measured hummus between the pitas, spreading a little inside each pocket.
  4. Fill the pockets with the drained chickpeas and sliced pepper.
  5. Serve promptly, keeping components separate when a household member prefers that presentation.
