Ingredients

  • 10 ounces chunk light tuna in water (2, 5 oz cans )
  • 1 shallot (halved and thinly sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 to 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup Brussels sprouts (shaved/shredded, or more if desired)
  • Salt and pepper
  • multigrain sandwich bread (if desired)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Use a can opener to open the cans of tuna. Then, over a sink, use the lids pressed against the upside-down cans to squeeze out and drain the liquid (there will be some liquid left in the tuna; that's OK). Transfer the tuna to a medium bowl.

  2. 2

    Add sliced shallot and lemon juice to bowl, along with 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1/2 cup shaved Brussels sprouts, a good sprinkling of salt and a few cracks of pepper. Taste. If desired, add more mayonnaise, shaved sprouts, lemon juice, salt and/or pepper.

  3. 3

    Serve on (toasted or untoasted) bread, with crackers, in an avocado half, etc.
