Good afternoon friends!
It’s a gorgeous day here in D.C. Once I finish this post I’m heading out for a walk with my Biology flashcards!
So today for lunch I had one of my very favorite concoctions: Tuna Salad with a Healthy Twist.
Remember when my lunch was featured on Kath’s blog last year? This is what I had! It was one of my favorite lunches when I worked in an office, and it still is. Try packing the tuna mixture in a tupperware and bringing the pita separately, then combining them at work so it doesn’t get soggy
Tuna Salad with a Healthy Twist
Ingredients:
- 1 small (2.6 oz) packet chunk light tuna (packed in water)
- Nonfat Greek or regular plain yogurt
- Dijon mustard
- Balsamic Vinaigrette
- 1 celery stalk, chopped
- Broccoli slaw
- Feta cheese
- Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 whole wheat pita
Instructions:
Place tuna in a bowl. Add a squirt of dijon mustard and a spoonful of yogurt, in the ratio of about 2 parts yogurt to 1 part mustard, and drizzle a little balsamic vinaigrette on top (about a tsp).
Add the chopped celery and broccoli slaw (LOVE this stuff… makes any sandwich instantly more awesome and crunchy) and mix it all up.
Heat or toast a pita, place the tuna mixture inside. Add a few crumbles of feta cheese on top, and then cover with a huge handful of spinach.
Close the pita and enjoy! But don’t toast the pita too long, or else it will end up like this
Bust!! I fail, haha.
Oh well, it was still amazingly tasty, if not a little messier than expected
Pitas are definitely my favorite bread of choice. So yummy!
What’s your favorite go-to lunch?
Have a great day everyone! Stay tuned tomorrow to find out my new favorite strength training move. It’s awesome!






























I love broccoli slaw too. I add it to my salads all the time!
I definitely have tuna as one of my go-to lunches, too. I like a little The Heat Is On peanut butter and greek yogurt mixed in mine to kick it up a notch
I might declare this week – sandwich week, just because your post looks so yummy!
I love that you did something different with your tuna. I have cans of it but I don’t ever know what to do with it beside the traditional type. I’m going to try this for lunch on Friday
wait… peanut butter with tuna?!? must try…
yay, tell me how you like it!
hehe good idea
