Toast the Bread: Start by toasting your slices of whole grain bread. For extra flavor, you can brush them lightly with olive oil or spread a thin layer of butter on one side before placing them in the toaster or on a hot skillet. Toast until golden and crispy this adds a satisfying crunch that complements the creamy tuna topping.
Prepare the Tuna Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the drained tuna, Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Stir everything together until it’s well-mixed and creamy. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. If you’re feeling adventurous, add in some fresh parsley or dill for an extra burst of flavor.
Assemble the Toast: Spread a generous layer of the tuna mixture onto each piece of toasted whole grain bread. The creamy tuna will perfectly complement the crispy toast, creating a delightful contrast of textures.
Optional Toppings: Want to take it to the next level? Add a few optional toppings. Try slicing up some avocado for a creamy, healthy fat boost, or add sliced cherry tomatoes for a pop of color and sweetness. You can also sprinkle red pepper flakes for a bit of heat if you like some spice.
Serve & Enjoy: Your tuna on whole grain toast is ready to be enjoyed! Slice it into halves for a quick bite or serve it whole for a satisfying meal.
