Ingredients: 1 can of low sodium tuna; 1 small dill pickle (could use celery or cucumber if you're worried about sodium); 1 hard boiled egg white (I just use the whites for low cholesterol but it only adds about another 40 calories to use the whole egg); 30g greek yogurt (~2 tbsp) (I use 2% Fage); 4 slices light wheat bread (I use Nature's Own Light Wheat); 2 slices 2% american cheese (I use Kraft); onion powder and dried dill

Grilled Mediterranean Ahi Tuna

Ahi Tuna (Yellowfin) Steaks Grilled with a Mediterranean Flair. Yellowfin Tuna or Ahi Tuna is usually served either Raw, as in sushi or Seared. or Grilled. When I first had this tuna grilled in spain with olive oil and salt I couldn't believe it was fish at all. This recipe is a bit of a cross between seared italian style and Spanish grilled.
