Healthy Mediterranean Tuna Salad
I like to serve this tuna on top of a kale salad, or as an open-faced sandwich on whole grain or pumpernickel toast. Spread a piece of bread with a thin layer of hummus, then top with lettuce, tomato, and tuna salad. Super filling, heart healthy and so yummy! Your body and your taste buds will both say “thank you.â€

Pour the tuna in a small mixing bowl. Use a fork to break the tuna chunks into very small pieces. Add the basil, celery and lemon juice to the bowl. Use the fork to stir all the ingredients together till well mixed. Add extra virgin olive oil to moisten the tuna to your liking. I usually use between 1 and 2 tbsp. Season with salt and pepper to taste; sea salt and freshly ground pepper is best. Serve.
