Ingredients:

Serving

1/3 cup tahini
3 tbsp water
1 tsp grated lemon zest
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1 (12-oz) can tuna packed in water, drained and flaked
1 (16-oz) can chickpeas, drained
1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
2 tbsp minced red onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh italian parsley
3 pita bread rounds, cut in half
romaine lettuce leaves

Directions:

Whisk together first 6 ingredients in a large bowl until smooth. Add tuna and next 5 ingredients; toss gently to combine.
Line each pita half with lettuce, and fill evenly with salad. Serve immediately.
Wine note: Tahini pairs well with Hangtime Pinot Noir 2003 [$16]. Pinot Noir always turns sweeter with foods that are salty. This great pick is fruity, with flavors of cherry and strawberry. -Rosalind Johnson, Divas Uncorked, Massachusetts
