Cook Time

Ingredients

20 ounces

tuna, water-packed canned

6 tablespoons

non-fat Greek yogurt

1 teaspoon

Dijon mustard

2

celery, diced

1/4 cup

parsley, minced

2 tablespoons

fresh mint, julienned

1/2 cup

walnuts, chopped and toasted

Directions

1. Drain the tuna and add it to a large mixing bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and stir until just combined.
2. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve with sliced fresh veggies and a salad or with whole-grain bread.
3. Handy Hint: When mixing together your tuna salad, use a fork instead of a spoon to create a lighter, fluffier salad. The fork introduces a bit of air into the mix, where a mixing spoon actually compresses the salad as you stir, leaving you with a denser dish.
