Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cans (5 ounces each) Canned tuna (in water, drained)
- 1 medium Apple (crisp variety like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
- 1 stalk Celery stalk
- 0.25 medium Red onion
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (plain, non-fat or full-fat)
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Curry powder
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 leaves Romaine lettuce leaves
- 8 slices Whole grain bread slices
Instructions
Drain the canned tuna thoroughly and place it in a medium mixing bowl. Use a fork to break the tuna into small flakes.
Wash and core the apple. Dice it into small, bite-sized pieces. Add to the bowl with the tuna.
Finely chop the celery and red onion. Add them to the bowl.
In a small separate bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, curry powder, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the yogurt dressing over the tuna mixture. Stir gently until all the ingredients are evenly coated. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Toast the bread slices lightly (optional) to enhance texture and flavor.
To assemble each sandwich, place a romaine lettuce leaf on one slice of bread. Top with a generous scoop of the curried tuna apple mixture, then cover with another slice of bread.
Slice each sandwich in half and serve. Enjoy immediately!
