Tuna Salad on Tomato

When you're watching your carb counts, bread can be a major culprit. But bread doesn't have to be the only thing to build a sandwich on. The next time you whip yourself up a light tuna salad, serve it on tomatoes or cucumbers. Tuna is packed with protein and iron, and the veggies will give the snack added vitamins and nutrients.

INGREDIENTS

2 tomatoes in thick slices

1 can tuna canned in water without salt

Lemon juice from 2 wedges

2 tsps olive oil

1/2 small onion diced (purple or red onion adds color)

1/2 cup diced red bell pepper

1 tbsp chopped parsley

Salt and pepper

DIRECTIONS

Open can of tuna, drain it, and place in a bowl.

Stir in lemon juice and olive oil.

Add bell pepper, onion, and parsley.

Salt and pepper to taste.

Pop onto the tomato slices and eat!
