Tuna salad sandwich with mustard greens
Tonight's dinner uses the shelf's prepared tuna straight from the can—already dressed with Dijon mustard, water chestnuts for crunch, and a light vinegar bite. Pile it on toasted bread with sharp mustard greens and you have supper in minutes.

To buy
- 2 cups mustard greens or arugula
- 4 slices thick-cut whole grain bread
From your shelf
- 1 can (5 oz) Starkist whole grain dijon mustard salad wild caught tuna creations
Staples
- pinch salt
- pinch pepper
- 1 teaspoon butter
- Toast 4 slices of whole grain bread until golden at the edges, about 4 minutes, then butter each slice lightly while still warm.
- Toss a pinch of salt and pepper into the tuna can and stir once to fluff it.
- Spread the prepared tuna evenly over 2 slices of toast, then layer 1 cup of mustard greens on top of each, and cap with the second slice of toast.
Note Swap the mustard greens for mixed salad or thinly sliced tomato if you prefer. Wrapped tightly, this keeps a day but the bread softens. Serve with a wedge of lemon and a glass of cold water or white wine.
