  • 2
    teaspoons cumin seeds

  • 1
    tablespoon bottled pepper and onion relish

1. In a medium skillet heat cumin seeds over medium heat until they are fragrant and starting to brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board. Crush seeds using a mortar and pestle or with a rolling pin.

Add meatless patties to grill rack; cook for 4 minutes per side or until heated through, adding pita bread the last 3 to 4 minutes of grilling. Cover and keep warm.

4. Chop pineapple and place in a bowl; stir in relish.

5. Serve veggie burgers on pita bread with pineapple mixture. If desired, top with fresh basil and chopped peanuts.
