This attractive supper salad is a great fit for a family dinner or entertaining. Since more than six in 10 Canadian households consume canned tuna every year, you're likely to have some in your cupboard.
Ingredients
Preparation
Dressing: In small bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper.
Brush pitas with 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the dressing. Place on greased grill or grill pan over medium-high heat; cook, turning once, until crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Cut into quarters.
In large bowl, toss greens with 1/4 cup (50 mL) of the remaining dressing. Divide among plates; place tomato slices around edges. Break tuna into chunks; sprinkle over greens. Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds and remaining dressing. Serve with pitas.
Additional information :
Substitution: Use canned sardines or salmon instead of the tuna. Sardines are rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
If you prefer, use basil, thyme or chervil instead of the rosemary.
