Eating Well Recipe...Best Tuna Salad Ever
When you don’t feel like cooking in the summer, what could be better? I consider myself something of a tuna salad connoisseur, and this recipe is one of the only that incites greediness and bickering in my household about who gets the leftovers. It is based on a sandwich from Nice, France and is therefore very Mediterranean.
Ingredients
• 1 12-oz. can solid white tuna, thoroughly drained
• ¼ cup minced red onion
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tsp. minced capers
• 2 tsp. anchovy paste
• 6 pitted kalamata olives, chopped
• 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tbsp. red wine vinegar
• 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice
• Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Preparation
Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. Spread mixture on bread (we prefer ciabatta, but foccacia works well too). We like to add tomato slices and red leaf lettuce as well.
