This was great! The pink-colored tuna is all we get here & I admit I used the microwave. I doubled the recipe for 2 of us & it was very good, but I must say that those who skipped (or subbed for) the veggies missed the best part of the recipe. They add texture, eye appeal & a surprising amt of flavor to the tuna combo. I used onion, red & green bell pepper, cucumber, carrot, mushrooms & celery. I more than doubled this part of the recipe & we ate every last speck of it. Both of us really liked this a lot, Redsie. Thx for sharing your recipe w/us.

I'm always looking for new ways to eat tuna and this one is super! I used a whole wheat pita and added just a little more cheddar cheese because I love it. ;) I skipped the addition of the finely chopped vegetables as I ate this with a side salad. Thanks for a wonderful and tasty dinner tonight, Reds! Loved it!
