Nutrition per Serving
Ingredients
- 3 pieces of whole wheat sandwich bread
- 1 can of tuna (i use albacore in water)
- 1 teaspoon capers, chopped
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise (plus more for spreading on the bread)
- 1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 1 cucumber, cut into long, thin sticks
- 1 carrot, grated
Instructions
- Cut the crusts off of each slice of bread and roll out as thin as possible with a rolling pin.
- Place the tuna, capers, mayonnaise and dijon mustard in a bowl and stir to combine.
- Place the long side of the rolled out bread closest to you.
- Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on each slice of rolled out bread.
- Thinly spread 1/3 of the tuna mixture onto half of the bread lengthwise.
- On top of the tuna mixture, arrange some of the cucumber sticks and grated carrot making sure not too over stuff the roll (a little goes a long way).
- Starting at the side closest to you (the filled end) tightly roll the tuna/cucumber/carrot mixture up and press to seal into a roll (I dab a bit of mayonnaise across the end of the roll to act as a glue sealing the roll).
- Cut the roll into 4 even pieces and repeat with remaining bread and tuna mixture.
