I’ve eaten tuna the same way my entire life. That was until I became a mother of 3 and wondered how many times I could serve them tuna for lunch before they were completely over it & would revolt against it.
As I was working to makeover & change-up our lunches I created this fun new spin on tuna (which is actually a whole lot healthier than I made it before. Win!).
When I first introduced this to one of my classes I had both non-Greek lovers and non-tuna lovers, yet they all raved about it!
Here’s the recipe. I’ve written it as 2-3 servings for sharing or left-over purposes. 🙂
