Tuna provides a lean, high-quality source of protein that supports muscle repair and keeps you full longer.

Preparation

  1. Cut the cucumber into sticks and dice the pickles and olives.
  2. Drain the tuna and mix it in a bowl with the yogurt, olives, mustard, and pickles. Season with pepper and salt.
  3. Use the tuna salad as a dip for the cucumber strips.
FitChef Tip: Stir a pinch of paprika into the tuna salad for extra flavor, or add a dash of Sriracha for a spicy kick.
