Mediterranean Tuna Salad
Serves 8 to 10
Time 10 min
A great way to serve this salad is to slice a 9-inch round focaccia in half horizontally, fill it with the tuna, and press a plate down on top of the round bread. Place a heavy can or weight on top for an hour, and the dressing will seep into the bread. Slice and serve. From The Whole Foods Market Cookbook.
