Ingredients
2 leafy greens (baby spinach or romaine)
2 slices fresh tuna (about 6 oz)
1 ripe avocado, sliced
1/2 English cucumber, chopped
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp honey
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat oven or grill to 400°F (200°C)
Pat tuna dry and season with salt, pepper, and minced garlic
Grill or sear tuna for 4 minutes per side on high heat
Meanwhile, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and honey for the vinaigrette
Toss greens with sliced tuna, avocado, cucumber, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and half the vinaigrette
Top with remaining dressing and garnish with lemon slices
Notes
Use parchment paper under vegetables when grilling in oven to prevent sticking
For vegan variation, substitute tuna with grilled marinated Portobello mushrooms
Store in airtight containers for up to 24 hours (tuna should be added fresh for best texture)
Add optional red bell pepper or feta cheese for extra flavor
