Ingredients
  

Group: Tuna Salad
  • 1 can (5 oz) tuna in water, drained
  • 1 ripe avocado, mashed
  • 2 Tbsp. Greek yogurt or mayonnaise
  • 1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1 Tbsp. lemon juice
  • 1 celery stalk, finely chopped
  • 1/4 red onion, finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh dill or parsley (optional)

Method
 

  1. Start by opening a can of high-quality tuna packed in water. Using a fork, flake the tuna in a medium mixing bowl until it’s nice and flaky.
  2. In a separate bowl, add a ripe avocado. Mash it with a fork until smooth, leaving a few small chunks for texture.
  3. To the tuna, add the mashed avocado, Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Stir until all ingredients are well combined for a chunky yet cohesive mixture.
  4. Fold in the finely chopped celery and red onion. Sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste.
  5. On a slice of bread, layer the tuna salad generously. Top with crisp lettuce or fresh spinach, and finish with another slice of bread. Slice diagonally to serve.
  6. Plate your sandwich alongside some raw veggies or chips, and enjoy!
