TUNA & GREEN OLIVE SANDWICH SPREAD
A very easy sandwich spread you can whip up in a few minutes. It can be used right away; however, the flavor is much better if you let it sit for about half an hour in the refrigerator. I love this on toasted bread with lettuce.

Steps:
- Drain water from the canned tuna and add to a bowl.
- Add 3-4 Tbsp Mayonnaise. You can add more or less according to preference. (See notes)
- Stir the tuna well, so that it becomes easily spreadable.
- Add the mustard and minced shallots.
- Use a fork to mix and stir the tuna to get it more smooth and spreadable. I like it only slightly chunky. If you want it extremely smooth, mix further.
- Once the texture is to your liking, add in the freshly chopped dill, salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir till thoroughly incorporated.
- Chill the tuna spread for at least 30 minutes in the fridge for best results. The filling tastes better chilled.
- To assemble: Shred the lettuce (rinsed and dried using a salad spinner or on kitchen paper).
- For each sandwich, apply a thin layer of Mayo on both slices of Un-toasted bread. Spread a generous layer of chilled tuna filling on one slice and top with plenty of shredded lettuce. Place the second slice over the lettuce and use a baking scraper to press it down, to prevent finger impressions.
- Cut the sandwich and serve while it is still chilled.
- if you want to store them wrap in sandwich paper or saran wrap and refrigerate till ready to use.

CRUNCHY CONFETTI TUNA SALAD
The herb-infused dressing in this healthy tuna salad recipe calls for equal parts Greek yogurt and low-fat mayo to keep it light. Lots of fresh veggies, including bell pepper, carrot, radishes and celery, also give boosts of flavor, color and nutrients. Serve on lettuce leaves, over a green salad or as an open-face sandwich on whole-grain toast.
