Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces whole grain bagels
- 2 cans canned tuna
- 0.5 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 cups red onion
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon capers
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by slicing the whole grain bagels in half and toasting them until they are golden brown and crisp.
While the bagels are toasting, prepare the tuna mixture. Drain the canned tuna thoroughly and place it in a mixing bowl.
Add the plain Greek yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, chopped red onion, chopped fresh dill, capers, salt, and black pepper to the mixing bowl with the tuna. Stir well to combine all ingredients until the mixture is creamy and fully incorporated.
Once the bagels are toasted, spread an even amount of the tuna mixture over each bagel half.
For an extra touch, you can garnish with additional dill or thinly sliced cucumber.
Serve immediately while the bagels are warm, with an optional side of mixed greens or sliced tomatoes.
