📝 Ingredients

1 (5 oz) can tuna in water, drained well
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 tbsp red onion, finely diced
1/4 cup cucumber, finely diced
2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
4-6 large butter lettuce leaves or romaine hearts

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1
In a medium bowl, flake the drained tuna with a fork.
2
Add the Greek yogurt, finely diced red onion, finely diced cucumber, chopped fresh dill, and fresh lemon juice to the bowl with the tuna.
3
Mix all ingredients together until well combined. The mixture should be creamy but still have texture.
4
Season the tuna salad with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more lemon juice or dill if desired.
5
Spoon a generous portion of the Mediterranean tuna salad into the center of each butter lettuce leaf or romaine heart.
6
Serve immediately, or pack the tuna salad and lettuce leaves separately for a fresh, crisp lunch on the go.

💡 Notes

For added crunch, consider mixing in a tablespoon of finely chopped celery. If prepping ahead, store the tuna salad in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator; pack lettuce separately. You can also swap out tuna for canned salmon or shredded cooked chicken for a different protein.
