Ingredients:

Serving

2 10- inch flour tortillas
2 tsp canola oil
1/2 tsp salt, divided
1/2 tsp sesame seeds
5 1/2 lbs fresh tuna
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1 cup shredded low-fat cheddar cheese
1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt
2 tsp lime juice
8 cups mixed salad greens
1 (7 oz) jar roasted bell peppers, drained and cut in strips

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Brush the tortillas on both sides with the oil, then cut them into 1/4-by-3-inch strips.
Toss the strips with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and the sesame seeds.
Lay the strips out on the prepared baking sheet and toast in the oven 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, or until they are crisped and lightly browned.
Meanwhile, sprinkle the tuna with the remaining salt, pepper and cumin.
Coat a broiling pan or grill pan with cooking spray, heat, then add the tuna and cook for about 3 minutes on each side for rare (or until cooked to desired degree of doneness).
Let the tuna stand 2 to 3 minutes before cutting with the grain into 1/4-inch-thick strips.
Combine the cheese, yogurt and lime juice in a bowl.
Gently toss the tuna with the lettuce, roasted pepper strips and the dressing.
Divide the salad among 4 dinner plates, and top with the tortilla croutons (alternatively, the crisped tortilla chips can be tossed in with the salad just before serving).
