I haven't packed a lunch with this combo recently, but my first thought, is that if you toasted the pita in the morning, that would help. Also, if you just brought all the ingredients for the sandwich (pita, pre-made egg salad, lettuce, etc.) in little containers, you could just assemble everything when you wanted to eat it. That way there is no risk of soggy bread or wilted greens. Just a thought. Let me know what you do, and how it works out. :) Jeanne – Thanks so much for stopping by.

And I love the diagram as well. Do the pitas ever get soggy if you pack the lunch in the morning and take it with you to work? I've always hated the white bread getting a little too moist. I will definitely try this recipe! Thanks! That looks wonderful! And I love the diagram as well. Do the pitas ever get soggy if you pack the lunch in the morning and take it with you to work?

I'm glad you are enjoying the pictures and my husband's illustration. I'm trying to get him to do a few more for some ideas I have. Thanks Hillary!

In my opinion, the fresh herbs and cornichons really make it. You can add a little mustard if you are so inclined or a little celery is also good. Yay egg salad! Thanks EJ!

My husband is available for freelance... jasoneats - Thanks, I'm glad to know the diagram sparked fires in the sandwich eating world. Yes, everyone has their preferences when it comes to egg salad. Some find it too dry, some find it too mayo-y, too finely chopped, too chunky...Oh the possibilities. I bet the egg slicer thing works out pretty well. For years, I would cut the eggs by hand with a knife, and found it tedious. One day I just mashed them with a fork and liked the uneven texture. It's a good thing there are no hard and fast rules. Jim - It's true, the toothpick is no match to a big, many tiered sandwich. Pitas can be very versatile that way. Jonathan – Thanks! My husband is available for freelance…

Yeah, that one toothpick is really gonna hold three layers of sandwich together, pal. I'll have to give pitas a try!
