Ingredients

  • 12-ounce can albacore tuna in water, drained
  • 1-1/2 cups marinated artichoke hearts, drained (reserve the marinade)
  • 1/4 to 1/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes packed in olive oil, undrained
  • 1-1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil or 1-1/2 teaspoons dried
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper


Directions

  1. Place the tuna, artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, and pepper in a medium-sized bowl. Add a couple of tablespoons of the reserved artichoke marinade and toss to mix well. Add a little more marinade if the mixture seems too dry.
  2. Serve immediately or cover and chill until ready to serve. If desired, serve on a bed of fresh salad greens, in whole-wheat pita pockets, or whole-wheat wraps lined with mixed salad greens.
