For a healthy on-the-go lunch, pack the tuna salad in a storage container, and fill the spinach-lined pita when you're ready to eat. Toss a few grapes into your lunch cooler, and the meal is complete. Ingredients:
1 cup rinsed and drained canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans) |
1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese with basil and tomato |
1/2 cup chopped plum tomato (about 2 tomatoes) |
1/4 cup chopped pitted kalamata olives |
1/4 cup light caesar dressing (such as ken's steak house) |
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 (6-ounce) can albacore tuna in water, drained |
2 (6-inch) whole wheat pitas, cut in half |
2 cups fresh baby spinach |
Directions:
1. Place chickpeas in a food processor; pulse 5 times or until chopped. Combine chopped chickpeas, cheese, and next 6 ingredients in a medium bowl; toss well.
2. Line each pita half with 1/2 cup spinach, and fill with 2/3 cup tuna salad.
