Ingredients

  • 2 cans tuna in water (5 oz each), drained

  • 1/4 cup finely diced onion
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 4 slices whole wheat or multigrain bread, toasted
  • 2 lettuce leaves
  • 2 tomato slices

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the drained tuna, chopped eggs, onion, mayonnaise, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Toast the bread slices to your preference.
  3. Optionally, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on each slice of bread.

  5. Slice the sandwich in half and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Add Dijon mustard or lemon juice for extra flavor.
  • Use Greek yogurt or low-fat mayo for a lighter version.
  • Include celery, pickles, or avocado for variety.
  • Assemble just before serving to avoid soggy bread.
  • Great for meal prep—store tuna salad separately.
