Tuna Salad & Tomato Sandwich

This classic deli-style tuna sandwich is packed with protein and topped with a juicy slice of fresh tomato. This recipe makes one sandwich, but you can easily double or quadruple the recipe to make more. Sweet pickle relish adds a contrast of flavors to the mix, but if you prefer something less sweet, dill pickle relish can be used in its place.

Ingredients

1 (5-ounce) can no-salt-added white tuna in water, drained and flaked
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh dill
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh chives
1 1/2 teaspoons sweet pickle relish
3/4 teaspoon dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
2 (1-ounce) slices multigrain bread, lightly toasted
2 large slices tomato (1/4- to 1/2-inch)
2 thin slices red onion
2 leaves butter lettuce

Directions

Combine tuna, mayonnaise, dill, chives, relish, mustard and pepper in a medium bowl; use a fork to mix well.
Spread the tuna salad on 1 bread slice. Top with tomato, onion, lettuce and the remaining bread slice. Slice in half and serve.
