Middle Eastern Tuna Salad


I love making this for my mom, who has diabetes. This recipes not only helps to stablize her diabetes but she loves the taste. I know this will be something that I make more often for her.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons tahini, or fruity extra-virgin olive oil 
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice 
  • 2 cloves garlic, very finely chopped 
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin 
  • 1 6-ounce can solid white tuna in water, drained and flaked 
  • 1 8-ounce can chickpeas, (3/4 cup), drained and rinsed 
  • 1/4 cup flat-leaf parsley, chopped 
  • salt & freshly ground pepper, to taste 


Instructions

Whisk together yogurt, tahini or olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and cumin in a bowl. Stir in tuna, chickpeas and parsley and season with salt and pepper.
