Provided by Pam List

Categories     Main Dish

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cans 50z tuna drained
1/2 cup finely diced celery
1/2 cup finely diced seeded cucumber
1/4 cup finely diced red onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat leaf parsley
Juice of one lemon
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tsp honey
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 cup toasted pita pieces - please add right before serving
1 Tsp ground sumac (optional garnish)

Steps:

  • Gather all ingredients
  • Combine tuna, chopped vegetables, olive oil, lemon juice, and honey.
  • Mix well.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste, however, I only add about a Tsp or two of salt and it is fine.
  • Mix with your toasted pita right before serving. If you add it too soon it will become soggy!
  • Sprinkle with Ground Sumac (optional)

LEBANESE TUNA TAHINI SALAD



Lebanese Tuna Tahini Salad image

I've recently discovered tahini and absolutely love it! In this healther adaptation of tuna salad, tahini replaces mayonnaise as the emulsifier and adds unique flavor along with the Middle Eastern spices. I like to add apples to my tuna salad for a contrasting sweet, tart flavor.

LEBANESE INSPIRED TUNA SALAD



Lebanese Inspired Tuna Salad image

I made this tuna salad recipe up; it is based on a tabouli recipe. While there is no bulghour in this recipe, you could certainly add it in. (Soak 1 cup bulghour in warm water for 20 minutes. Drain. Squeeze dry. Combine with tuna salad.)
