Open-Faced Tuna Sandwich

Typically, my tuna fish sandwich is a concoction of tuna, mayonnaise and sweet pickles. Slathered on white bread with extra mayo...and usually accompanied by a big handful of Fritos. Delicious, but not real healthy.

So here's my tuna sandwich for today. Still just as delicious and MUCH better for me. Now, if I could only find a healthy alternative to Fritos....

Open-Faced Tuna Sandwich

Combine 1 can (6 ounces) of tuna packed in water, drained, with 1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil, and 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice in a small bowl. Season with pepper. Spoon onto two pieces of multi-grain bread (toasted if you'd like). Top each with a couple more fresh basil leaves.
