Mediterranean Tuna Salad Sandwich

This Mediterranean-style tuna salad recipe from the Body Beast Eating Plan is a healthy, versatile, high-protein meal. Instead of mayonnaise, it is dressed with lemon juice and heart-healthy extra-virgin olive oil, and dotted with colorful veggies.

Make multiple servings of the tuna mixture in this recipe and use in sandwiches, salads and even tossed with cooked whole grain pasta. This is also a great recipe that can be enjoyed with raw vegetables if you are avoiding carbs. You can also make a sandwich using lettuce leaves instead of bread.
