Tuna is great for a high protein diet as it has 33 grams of protein within its housing, with no pesky carbohydrates to worry about. In addition to this, tuna contains B vitamins and vitamin D, both of which are vital to fighting back against PCOS.

Ingredients

8 ounces fresh goat cheese (chèvre), at room temperature
4 naan breads*
1 pound mixed cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup (4 oz.) pitted mixed olives, coarsely chopped
1/2 fennel bulb, chopped, plus fennel fronds for garnish
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
8 ounces good-quality tuna packed in olive oil, drained

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 °. Spread 2 oz. goat cheese on each naan. Bake until bread is toasty and crisp on the bottom, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine tomatoes, olives, fennel, green onions, and oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
Separate tuna into fat flakes and divide among naan. Spoon on tomato-olive salad and top with fennel fronds.
