Mediterranean Tuna Salad Without Mayo
Mediterranean tuna salad skips mayonnaise and uses olive oil, lemon and Dijon for a bright dressing. Chickpeas and vegetables make it more substantial for lunch.
Ingredients
- 2 cans tuna in water drained
- 1 can chickpeas drained and rinsed
- 1 cucumber diced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- 1/3 cup red onion finely diced
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1/4 cup sliced olives
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano

Instructions
- Flake drained tuna into a bowl.
