Healthy California-Style Tuna Salad Sandwiches

• 1 pouch (6.4 ounces) chunk light tuna in water

• ½ cup chopped unpeeled cucumber

• 1/3 cup alfalfa sprouts

• ¼ cup chopped red onion

• 1 tablespoon capers, drained, optional

• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

                                  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

                                  • 1/3 cup reduced-calorie or light Italian salad dressing

                                  • 4 lettuce leaves

                                  • 8 slices Nature’s Pride 100% Whole Wheat Bread

                                  • 1 large tomato, thinly sliced

Combine all ingredients, except lettuce, Nature’s Pride Bread and tomato. Arrange lettuce on four slices of bread. Spoon about 1/4 of tuna mixture over the lettuce on each sandwich. Top with thinly sliced tomato and remaining slice of bread. Cut in half and serve.

Tip: If desired, seed cucumber before chopping. To quickly seed a cucumber, cut cucumber in half and scrape center with a teaspoon to remove seeds.
