Ingredients

Makes 1 serving.

  • Canned tuna in water (drained)150 g, well drained
  • Baked tostada shell3 tostadas (45 g)
  • Plain 0% Greek yogurt40 g
  • Pico de gallo80 g
  • Avocado30 g
  • Lime juice10 ml

Method

  1. 1

    Drain the tuna properly. Leftover water thins the flavour.

  2. 2

    Mix it with the Greek yogurt, lime, salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Spread over the tostadas.

  4. 4

    Top with the pico de gallo and avocado.

The detail that matters

Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise saves around 90 calories a tablespoon and adds protein. With lime and salt you can barely tell.
