I made this up while on phase 1 of the South Beach Diet. I was trying to keep fresh cut up veggies on hand and I love tuna so this was quick to throw together when I didn't want to think about what to eat. It is also very colorful...I love green, purple and red together. I also love the spicy tuna with the crunch and flavors of the fresh veggies. My favorites are radish sprouts and purple cabbage...sometimes I'll eat it with just those.
Ingredients:
1 (6 ounce) can tuna, drained
2 tablespoons best foods mayonnaise
creole seasoning, to taste
ground black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup white onion, diced
1 cup romaine lettuce, torn into bite size pieces (i usually use triple hearts)
1/2 cup mixed sprouts (i like radish best)
1/2 cup purple cabbage, shredded
1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
1/4 cup grape tomatoes (optional)
Directions:
1. Mix tuna with mayonnaise, spices and onion.
2. Arrange lettuce on plate. Then layer: Sprouts, cabbage and bell pepper.
3. Place tuna in a scoop on the top and sprinkle tomatoes over the top of it all.
