1 tbsp black sesame seeds
1 regular pita, halved
1 handful sprouts

  2. Mix vinaigrette with tuna and black sesame seeds.
  3. Stuff pita halves with tuna mixture and top with sprouts.

Are the liquid measurements correct? I made the recipe today and the tuna was just swimming in liquid. The taste was delicious but the pita was totally soggy as a result.
