Tuna Pita Melt

This meal hits the spot, and is deliciously satisfying. It brings a little variation to a "typical" tuna melt. The warm, toasted pita, melted cheese, hints of dill, pepper, lemon, garlic, and combination of the other ingredients makes this dish so tasty. The crunchiness of the shallot and celery is a nice addition to this meal. The leftovers are just as scrumptious.

Chop the shallot and celery into small pieces. Place the pieces into a small mixing bowl.

Add the mayonnaise, mustard, dill weed, pepper, and lemon juice to the mixing bowl. Mix together.

  • We used Giant's brand of Real Mayonnaise made with cage free eggs, and Giant's brand of Stone Ground Mustard (Gluten Free).
  • We also used McCormick Gourmet Organic Dill Weed (Non GMO Verified. USDA Organic); and McCormick Peppercorn Medley Grinder (Non GMO), which contains a mixture of black peppercorns, coriander, pink peppercorns, white peppercorns, allspice, and green peppercorns.

Add the tuna, relish, and garlic to the mixing bowl. Mix together.

  • We used Starkist Chunk Light Tuna In Water, and Giant's brand of Sweet Relish. We also used Giant's brand of Chopped Garlic in Water.
Ingredients in mixing bowl

Slice the tomatoes, and set the slices to the side. We used three medium-sized tomatoes on the vine.

Add 3/4 of a cup of the tuna to the flatbread.

  • We used the 5 count package of Mediterranean Wheat Flatbread.
