These pita pockets make a light dinner or substantial lunch—they’re perfect to pack for picnics or lunch on the go too! A spicy Sriracha dressing gives amazing flavor to coleslaw mix. It features a simple mixture of mayonnaise, sesame oil, fresh lime juiced, and minced ginger and garlic. You'll find yourself using the dressing over and over again, for any type of salad or sandwich that needs a touch of heat and creaminess. For this recipe, after you make the dressing and toss it with the coleslaw, scallions, and cilantro, simply add some chicken tenderloins and tuck into a whole wheat pita pocket.
