CREAMY Cucumber Tuna Sandwich | Healthy & Delicious 10 Minute Recipe

This creamy cucumber tuna sandwich is filled with layers of flavors, made with simple everyday ingredients, and done in just 10 minutes. Serve it next to a handful of chips and a couple of ice-cold beers or even some chilled club soda for the best moment in your day.

To make the tuna salad, I used canned Spanish tuna in olive oil. You can use any type of canned tuna you like. Though the higher the quality of the tuna, the better the overall flavors. To give the salad that creamy goodness, I used low-fat plain Greek yogurt. You can also use full fat or even non-fat.

For the bread, I used multi-grain sandwich bread. You can use whatever type of bread you like. The most important thing is to make sure you lightly toast the bread. That way, once you add the rest of the ingredients, it doesn’t get mushy and break apart.

TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: You can make the tuna salad ahead of time. It will hold for up to 3 to 4 days in the fridge in an airtight container.
