This Mediterranean inspired tuna sandwich is a healthier alternative to the classic, mayo ladened tuna sandwich. The tuna salad is made with a feta-yogurt based sauce, and piled high with crunchy fresh vegetables on a toasted ciabatta bread.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The secret is the briny, creamy, herby feta sauce \u2014 it\u2019s packed with healthy fats, lean protein and herbs, its the best thing I\u2019ve ever tossed with plain canned tuna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Mediterranean tuna salad sandwiches are one of my new favorite meal prep for weekday lunches because of how easy they are, keeps me full longer and decently healthy. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Bake or grill the ciabatta bread, its worth your time. You can also use artisanal rustic breads or sandwich breads for this sandwich.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. The feta sauce is simple and will last up to a week in an airtight container, refrigerated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. For the tuna I like European canned tuna. Italian, Spanish or Portuguese bonito tuna are some of the best. A little pricey but so much nicer. Tuna in water or oil both work, make sure you drain well. In case of water saved tuna add a tablespoon of olive oil to keep it moist and flavorful.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. When ready to eat, pile the tuna salad high on the toasted bread, topped with cucumber, arugula and thinly shredded cabbage. Hot sauce is a bonus. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Packed with protein and vegetables this is a filling sandwich without being heavy. Enjoy!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
