Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 tins tuna (£2.37)
- 3 courgettes (£1.15)
- ½ red onion (£0.47)
- 1 red bell pepper (£0.42)
- 2 lemons (£0.59)
Cupboard Essentials
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise
- Pinch dried oregano
- Red pepper flakes
- Salt & Pepper
Instructions
High in protein, includes mayo 🧡 and has all the volume, minus the calories. Make sure you buy tuna in brine/water instead of in oil. Save the calories for the mayo.
- I eat these fresh so only make one at a time (fine to make in the morning and eat at lunch time!)
- Grate one whole courgette and add it into a mixing bowl.
- Finely dice half a red onion and ⅓ or the bell pepper and throw in the bowl.
- Drain the tuna and add to the mixing bowl. Add 1 tbsp of mayonnaise and the juice of half a lemon (less if you’re not that into lemon) and a pinch of dried oregano. Stir to combine everything and season with salt, pepper and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
