Pitas with tuna salad
Pita bread is very popular in the Middle East and Mediterranean countries. Inside the pita there is a pocket created by steam from baking, which is so great to stuff. We decided to stuff the pitas with tuna salad - this is a win-win option that both children and adults love. One such pita is enough to satisfy hunger for a long time in the middle of the day.
