READER'S COMMENT: "This recipe is so easy - inexpensive - and simply delicious! My husband is picky and still ate it artichokes and all. Definitely a do-over meal. "
Ingredients:
• 1 12-ounce can (or two 6-ounce cans) chunk light tuna, drained and flaked (see Note)
• 1 cup chopped canned artichoke hearts
• 1/2 cup chopped olives
• 1/3 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1-1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
Preparation:
1. Combine tuna, artichokes, olives, mayonnaise, lemon juice and oregano in a medium bowl.
Tips & Notes
• Note: Chunk light tuna, which comes from the smaller skipjack or yellowfin, has less mercury than canned white albacore tuna. The FDA/EPA advises that women who are or might become pregnant, nursing mothers and young children consume no more than 6 ounces of albacore a week; up to 12 ounces of canned light tuna is considered safe.
