10-MIN MEDITERRANEAN TUNA SALAD (BOLD & HEALTHY)
Healthy tuna salad without mayo, prepared the Mediterranean way with lots of crunchy vegetables, fresh herbs, and a zesty Dijon dressing! I like using wild-caught Albacore or Yellowfin tuna, and I tend to choose tuna packed in water. To change up this easy tuna salad, add some chopped pink pickles, diced carrots, chopped bell peppers, or different fresh herbs. Serve healthy tuna salad in a pita sandwich, in lettuce wraps, or as an appetizer over sweet roasted tomatoes.

Steps:
- To make the zesty mustard vinaigrette, in a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, lime zest, and lime juice. Add the olive oil, sumac, salt and pepper, and crushed pepper flakes (if using), and whisk again until well-blended. Set aside briefly.
- To make the tuna salad, in a large salad bowl, combine the tuna with the chopped vegetables, Kalamata olives, chopped fresh parsley and mint leaves. Mix gently with a wooden spoon.
- Pour the dressing over the tuna salad. Mix again to make sure the tuna salad is evenly coated with the dressing. Cover and refrigerate for half an hour before serving. When ready to serve, toss the salad gently to refresh.

Steps:
- Cook the pasta as directed on the box.
- Rinse pasta with cold water and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- Add tuna, grape tomatoes,artichoke hearts, and mayo. You may use more or less artichokes as you like -- I find that 1 jar of artichoke hearts is good to make this recipe 3 times, which is why I say use a third of it. Same with mayo -- use more or less to your tasting.
- Mix well.
- sprinkle cheese and croutons.
- enjoy :).

Steps:
- Cook rice according to package directions; after, set aside to cool.
- While rice cools, steam the green beans until tender-crisp; then rinse under cold, running water.
- Transfer the green beans to a large serving bowl and add the celery, bell pepper, onion and basil.
- Add the rice and dressing (the dressing is comprised of the last 4 ingredients listed).
- Toss to combine, then add tuna.
- Toss to combine and eat immediately or cover and refrigerate until serving time. (I prefer to refrigerate for a few hours.).
- (Additional notes: you can also use frozen green beans in lieu of fresh for the recipe if necessary, but please use FRESH basil! It makes all the difference to not be using a dried spice. Also, I love to serve these as tacos/burritos on whole wheat tortillas, but you can serve them however you want!).
