Tuna and Avocado Pita

This meal has it all—whole grains, heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and omega-3 fats, a serving of veggies, fiber, protein, vitamins, and minerals—so it will stabilize blood sugar levels for energy and leave you satisfied until your next meal, says Shannon Weston, a registered dietitian for the University of Texas at Houston Health Science Center.

Halve and lightly toast a whole-wheat pita. Meanwhile mix together 1 pouch (about 2 ounces) tuna, 2 tablespoons spicy mustard, 1/4 cup each shredded carrots and chopped celery, and a dash each turmeric, cumin, and black pepper. Split tuna mixture between pita halves and top with sliced avocado.
