Recipe information

  • Total Time

    5 minutes

  • Yield

    Serves 2

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

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cut the crusts off of each slice of bread and roll out as thin as possible with a rolling pin.

    Step 2

    Place the tuna, capers, mayonnaise and dijon mustard in a bowl and stir to combine.

    Step 3

    Place the long side of the rolled out bread closest to you.

    Step 4

    Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on each slice of rolled out bread.

    Step 5

    Thinly spread 1/3 of the tuna mixture onto half of the bread lengthwise.

    Step 6

    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).

    Step 7

    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).

    Step 8

    Cut the roll into 4 even pieces and repeat with remaining bread and tuna mixture.
