I wanted to try something a bit different………………and isn’t it just amazing when it turns out delicious! I fancied Greek style but healthy and with a kick, so here is my Greek inspired lettuce sandwiches.

1 Red mini Cos Lettuce (or any lettuce of your choice)

1 tin of tuna in spring water

2 tbsp of black olives – halved

1/2 red onion – chopped finely

1 tsp of chilli flakes

1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

2 tbsp mayonnaise low fat

1/2 avocado – sliced

 

  1. Mix tuna, olives, balsamic, chilli, mayo and onion together in a bowl
  2. Wash lettuce and place on a plate
  3. Top lettuce with the tuna mix and place avocado slices on top
  4. Place another lettuce leaf to close the sandwich and serve. Yum!

Beware if you are eating with your hands, you WILL get messy!

I have to admit this is still my favourite Salad, flavours are just so tasty and go with anything. So quick to put together too!

1 x Red Mini Cos Spanish Lettuce  – sliced longways the halved (this is so crunchy and refreshing)……best lettuce in my books.  20160206_165328_resized_1

1 x carrot – sliced longways

1/2 cucumber – sliced longways

1/2 courgette – sliced longways

2 tbsp black olives sliced

4 small cherry or piccolo tomatoes – sliced halveways

2 tbsp lemon juice

big drizzle of Olive oil – good quality

2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

2 tbsp sesame seeds to top

 

  1. Mix everything together – serve with anything or simply just eat on its own. Yummy!
