Tuna is rich in potassium, phosphorus, and iron. Your body needs adequate amounts of iron for your heart to pump oxygenated blood efficiently. Traditional tuna sandwiches are loaded with mayonnaise and salt. This Mediterranean-style tuna is light, and flavorful with finely chopped cucumbers, bell peppers, peppery stone-ground mustard, and a fresh lemony and creamy Tzatziki sauce.
7 ounces no-salt-added canned tuna, in water
1 cucumber, diced
1 orange bell pepper, diced
1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard
2 low-sodium whole wheat wraps

FLAVOR TIP:
For a mixture that resembles the texture of a thick and creamy tuna salad, mash ½ of a ripe avocado and mix it with the tuna, cucumber, bell pepper, and mustard.
