  • “I don’t like salmon, so I used canned crab meat. Very nice taste.”

  • “This was really yummy!! I had to add an extra tbsp og mayo, but other than that, I didnt change a thing!! Thanks, I’ll make this often”

  • “This was a very good recipe, had it for lunch today. It was quite easy and quick to make. I did have to increase the lemon juce, dill, and a tbsp. of mayo in the salad, as well as add a bit of salt and white pepper, because it had seemed a bit dry and less flavorful than I wanted and the fishiness was coming through a bit strong. But the additions did a lot for it and it tasted very good after that. I liked how the cucumber and lettuce tasted with the salad in the pita- it was very cooling- I think this would be a great lunch idea for hot summer days with a nice cold drink and some fresh fruit to boot. Good recipe! :)”

  • “The tiny bones in the salmon bothered me with this one. Maybe I would make it with tuna.”

  • “These were so yummy! They’ll be a staple around here in the summer. 😉 I doubled the sour cream, mayo, dill, and lemon juice… I also threw in a bit of garlic powder, black pepper, and a chopped green onion. My new favorite sandwich!!”

  • “Yummy!! And extremely convenient — I was able to keep this in the fridge for a few days and fill the pitas on-the-fly, for a quick snack or lunch. I’ll be making this again!”

  • “I loved this. I didn’t change a thing about the salad, but left out the cucumbers for personal taste. I added some red onion and tomato to the pita and loaded it with alfalfa sprouts. Delicious!”
