Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 6 (6-inch) pitas
  • 2 (6 ounce) cans tuna, drained
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons dill pickle relish
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large tomato, sliced into thin wedges
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions
