    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.
