Healthy Recipes Main Dishes Healthy Sandwich Recipes Cucumber–Tuna Salad Sandwich 4.4 (5) 3 Reviews Cucumber adds a refreshing crunch to the creamy tuna salad in this easy sandwich. We opted for Greek-style yogurt to reduce fat and calories and add some tanginess to the dressing. Add some relish, chopped celery or pickled peppers to the tuna mixture to boost the flavor even more. Serve with potato chips, chopped fresh veggies or with bagel chips on the side.
