Skinny recipe #7 Asian tuna (tossed) salad

Hello!
The other day I had to be up in London for work and so went to Tossed for lunch. Oh.My.God. <3

For those of you who have never been or have no idea what it is, it's like subway but for massive (and healthy) salads and wraps. I think they do soups and that as well, but the salads are amazing. I had something similar to the above (Asian Tuna with lettuce) and loved it so much I wanted to recreate it at home :]

So, here's how I did it!

Serves one

You will need:
Lettuce (could use noodles)
1/4 red pepper
1/4 yellow pepper
1 cup of raw broccoli
Handful of cashews, toasted
1/2 can tuna
1 tsp half-fat/low-fat mayo
Handful of corriander (hald chopped and mixed with tuna, half saved for scattering)
Sprinkle of puy lentils (optional)
Drizzle of sesame oil
Drizzle of light soy sauce

Method:
  • On a medium heat, lightly toast the cashew nuts in a dry frying pan.
  • Whilst toasting the nuts, chop all vegetables (lettuce, peppers, broccoli) and add into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the nuts to the bowl once toasted.
  • Add 1/2 can of tuna to a seperate bowl with 1 tsp of low-fat/half-fat mayo (or yogurt) and a handful of finely chopped corriander.
  • Add to the mixing bowl and 'toss'.
  • Drizzle over some seasame oil and soy sauce.
  • Sprinkle with the remaining corriander and serve!
 So simple but SO tasty and low calorie yet so filling!

I'm totally addicted to this salad now and will be eating it for a while :]

TRY IT! x
