Ingredients
- 2 (6-ounce) cans water-packed tuna, drained
- 1 Kirby cucumber, seeded and finely diced (3/4 cup)
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus a drizzle
- 3 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
- 2 scallions (white and green parts), thinly sliced
- 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill leaves
- 1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest from 1 lemon
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 8 slices nine-grain bread
- 1 Hass avocado, halved, seeded, and sliced
- 1 1/2 cup mesclun salad, or other lettuce
- 2 large tomatoes
Directions
Break up the tuna in a medium bowl. Stir in the cucumber, olive oil, mustard, scallions, dill, lemon zest, and season with salt and pepper.
Lay the bread on a work surface and spread about 1/4 of the tuna mixture on 4 of the slices. Top with avocado slices and lettuce. Lay the tomato slices on the 4 remaining pieces of bread; season with salt and pepper and drizzle with a bit of olive oil. Close the sandwiches, pressing each one together slightly. Serve.
Alternatively serve them open faced to use less bread.

club sandwiches are my favorite food always, when we went out 40 years ago I would eat clubs and now in my late sixty's I still love them. Great recipe I wiil make it again and again I never get tired of eating clubs. Mahalo Nui Loa from Hawaii.

That was really good. I wasn't even looking for a "no mayo" tunafish recipe, but I had all the ingredients for this one, so I made it. It was delicious, better than any tunafish sandich I've ever had. I followed the recipe exactly except for adding some chopped celery for extra crunch. Scooped it on top of a whole wheat toasted bagel and it was great!

I would like to start out by saying that this recipe is excellent. It is a nice, refreshing switch from the ordinary "tuna salad". I am a mother of 2 children with food allergies and it was great to find a recipe that was egg and milk protein free that was adult and kid freindly.
