Recipe- Healthy To Eat Broccoli Tuna Salad

Broccoli tuna salad is a fresh variation of a lunchtime favorite. It’s a simple blend of tuna, broccoli rice, mayonnaise, dijon mustard, green onions, and sunflower seeds. It’s a great way to sneak more greens into your tuna salad! The great thing about tuna salad is that it can last for 3-4 days in the fridge. Which makes it a wonderful meal prep option. Just make sure to not let it sit at room temperature for too long since it has fish and mayonnaise in it.

Ingredients

2 5-ounce cans tuna, drained
1 cup broccoli rice
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 green onions, sliced
2 tablespoons sunflower seeds
1-2 tablespoons chopped parsley, chives or other herbs
salt and pepper, to taste

Method

* Remove the florets from a head of broccoli, place in a food processor, and pulse until the texture resembles rice.

* Add the drained canned tuna, mayonnaise, dijon mustard, broccoli rice, sunflower seeds, green onion, and chopped parsley to a bowl.

* Stir everything together until it's well combined.

* Enjoy the broccoli tuna salad straight out of the bowl, turned into a sandwich, or wrapped in lettuce leaves.
