Beacon Dietitian offers Mediterranean salad recipe from American Heart Association

Looking for something easy and nutritious to make for dinner?  Try this Mediterranean Tuna Salad!

If you don’t have the spinach, don’t worry! Just make the tuna salad and wrap it up in a tortilla instead of bread to limit calories and carbs! Out of tuna? Sub in diced or shredded chicken instead. Looking for a meatless option? Pulse some chickpeas in a food processor or mash with a potato masher.

Servings: 8 | Calories per serving: 100

10 ounces canned albacore tuna, packed in water, drained
6 cups packed baby spinach leaves

½ cup chopped red onion
1 cup chopped, peeled cucumber
¼ cup crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
2 tablespoons olive oil

  1. In a large bowl, combine the tuna, spinach, tomatoes, onion, cucumber and feta.
