Tuna salad

The healthy salad this week is Tuna salad. I am off to Chester for a few days break so this is a use up what is in the store cupboard and the fridge.
A circle of chopped lettuce, chopped yellow peppers, chopped white onion, grated carrot, white grapes and a few stuffed green olives started the salad off.
Sliced cooked new potatoes in the middle. I put a dressing of olive oil and red wine vinegar on the warm potatoes and the outer salad.
This was topped with some steamed broccoli.
I topped off that with canned tuna. It was the type in spring water so less fattening than that in oil and less salt than the brine versions.
I topped this with slices of egg.
Serve with fresh bread if you like and anchovies would make a tasty addition. Also feta cheese would make a tangy addition.
I think this could be a good starter or a good option for those on a diet to loose weight. it certainly is healthy. My only hesitation is that tuna are being fished out of the ocean so it may be my last tin until things improve. Also too many other creatures are lost in the fishing process so again I may call it my last and from now on just go for farmed fish that are sustainable.
An alternative for the tuna is tofu in a marinade or quick fried.

Tuna Salad

This is the final salad we had on the fishing trip. It was tinned tuna with chopped green peppers, chopped tomatoes and chopped cucumber. This was topped off with a dressing of chopped fresh garlic,salt, pepper and a light vinegar. It was amazing what the chef did on that small boat on Lake Naser, Egypt.
