Tuna and Garlic Pitas with Sunflower Seeds

I am consistently bored with lunch food and always trying to find something new to get me through the day. Today's attempt was found on the back of the package for the Toufayan pitas I buy. I modified it, as usual.


Ingredients
1 can tuna, drained
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 c. onion (red or sweet yellow)
4-6 Spanish olives, chopped
Salt, pepper and fresh lemon juice to taste
1 tbs. reduced fat feta cheese crumbles
1 tsp. all-nautral, raw sunflower seeds
1/2 whole wheat pita loaf
1 tbs. your favorite hummus

1. Mix the first 7 ingredients in a small bowl.

2. Toast the 1/2 pita loaf until desired browning.

3. Open the pita and spread the hummus on both sides. Stuff with mixture. Enjoy!

P.S. You might want to make sure you have gum or mints with you if you take this to work for noshing. I was thinking about titling this post "Bad Breath Pita." It's worth it though, trust me.
