I made this one up because I was craving something simple, more like what I *used to* eat! lol Today, when I ate it and logged it, I was so impressed. It looked and tasted GREAT, made me feel good, and turned out to be very good on counts, too.
You could use unsalted tuna but I need more salt, so don’t. I also really like mustard. The cucumber helps make it moist. It is also a LOT! ;-)
Make the “tuna salad” part ahead and chill.

I served the crackers on the side and spooned little bites of salad on each cracker as I ate it. This is definitely going in my favorite lunches!
