GROWN-UP GRILLED
PITA TUNA MELT
Only the best tuna melt you'll ever eat.
4 cans (6 1/2 ounces each) white tuna
in water, drained very well
1/4 cup finely chopped celery
2 T. fresh lemon juice
2 T sour cream
2 T. mayonnaise
1 T. drained capers, lightly chopped
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. fresh ground black pepper
3 large pocket pitas, cut in half
1/8 cup shaved red or Bermuda onion
3 cups fresh baby spinach
6 slices Muenster or Swiss cheese
1 package (4 oz.) alfalfa or other thin
sprouts
olive oil for brushing on pitas
Heat grill to medium heat. Combine
tuna, celery, lemon juice, sour cream,
mayonnaise, capers, salt and pepper in a
medium bowl and stir well.
Open the pockets of the pita and
divide and spread the tuna in the pita
pockets (do not spoon all the tuna into
the bottom of the pockets). Top the
tuna with the shaved onion and fresh
spinach. Slice the cheese slices over the
spinach (the cheese should not stick out
of the pita pocket).
Brush both sides of the pita sandwich-
es with olive oil and grill on both sides
until golden with charred lines. Place a
generous amount of alfalfa sprouts on
top of the pockets and serve hot. Makes
6 sandwiches. I I
