Lunch: Adults Only Tuna Sandwich
Each day I fix my four-year-old daughter one of three possibilities for lunch: a bowl of yogurt topped with granola, a fluffernut sandwich (more on that next week), or an ambitious bowl of macaroni and cheese. I tire of these possibilities; and after fixing her plate I always ask myself, “but what should I eat?”. Well, a few days ago I concocted a tuna sandwich that makes me excited about eating lunch. Here’s hoping you will take a few minutes to fix a slightly nicer lunch for yourself than you will for your children.
serves 1-2 (depending on how hungry you are, and how late you put off eating lunch)
1 can albacore tuna
1/4 of a red onion-minced
1/2 of a lemon’s juice
1 tsp. lemon peel
diced avocado
salt
dash of white pepper
dollop of mayonnaise
Add everything to a bowl and mix well. Eat as a salad alongside crusty bread, or find some sort of cracker to scoop it up, or settle for dressing up the same bread your children eat.
