Starbucks' Grilled Chicken and Roasted Veggies with Hummus on Flat Bread

When my friend told me that Starbucks has new items on its menu, this got me really excited! I love their cakes and sandwiches and I make it a point to try at least one of them. Since I love grilled chicken and veggies on a sandwich, this particular sandwich caught my attention...



GRILLED CHICKEN & ROASTED VEGGIES WITH HUMMUS ON FLAT BREAD
Tender grilled chicken breast with a blend of Middle Eastern spices, roasted sliced carrots, eggplants, zucchini, shiitake mushrooms, red and green bell pepper with hummus on grilled warm flat bread.



Not only does it sound good but seems to be healthy as well! OK, I will try this when I get a chance to go to Starbucks.. and luckily, I had a chance to go there today and decided to have my lunch there.




Well surprisingly, I liked how the sandwich tasted! I found it yummy, considering that I never like food with Middle Eastern flavor in the first place (errr... smell alone turns me off). It was my first time to eat hummus and good thing they put just the right amount inside the sandwich which made it not overpowering. I loved the grilled chicken & roasted veggies (as always); it wasn't a lot but at least they didn't scrimp on the filling. Remember though to consume it right away when you have it warmed coz the bread has a tendency to get a bit tough. :)

Yummy, eh??

I think I'm buying this again next time! Hope you guys can try it too! :)

i would definitely check that out (the next time my family do decide to enter starbucks); usually kasi nagmamadali when we pass by starbucks kaya we only buy their drinks, lol.

I haven't tried this or any of the new sandwiches at the moment. I actually miss Starbucks' spring vegetable wrap.

Hummus is one of those Mediterranean dishes what sits well with my stomach. Thanks for posting! Will try this!

I have a Persian-food related post too recently, so timely with this post of yours. :D

This looks really filling. I haven't blogged anything from Starbucks yet. Which is weird because there's one just inside my workplace. I'll give it a shot. :)
