Tuna Salad, Dukan Style

When it comes to protein-only days on Dukan,sometimes it is a challenge to find creative things to eat. Well, here is an old standby, which tastes refreshing and delicious even without the bread or vegetables- a nearly non-fat tuna salad.

 This recipe uses non-fat Greek yogurt  ( 1 tbsp) in lieu of mayonnaise, and (1 tbsp) dill relish, which has zero sugar, compared to the "sweet" relish, which contains sugar. Used  simply as a condiment  in the tuna (1 can), it is not considered a "vegetable". Also added is a chopped boiled egg, which, without the yolk, makes this tuna salad completely fat free. (Add a dash of salt to taste)

In the picture below, as you can see, I have formed small spheres of the tuna salad, and served it on a rectangular plate sitting on a leaf of Romaine lettuce to add to the presentation. Eat it slowly, deliberately, and enjoy every bite!
