Recipe: Easy Dukan Tuna & Egg Salad

This is a really easy recipe I whipped up based on the few ingredients allowed for Attack phase, so it's useable for PP days.


Level: Easy
Cooking Time: 10mins preparation, 12mins cooking
Serves 1 for a large lunch.

Ingredients:
1 can of tuna in water, drained
2 eggs
150g fat free cream cheese OR 100g Greek yoghurt OR 100g Dukan Mayonnaise

Hardboil the eggs (about 12 minutes) and peel them, then roughly chop them. Mash all ingredients together with salt, a generous sprinkling of freshly ground black pepper, and your choice of herbs. I prefer to use a combination of dried onion, oregano and cayenne pepper. If the mixture is too thick, you can add 1 tbsp of yoghurt at a time, or some of the water from the tuna. Alternatively, you can add in 1 tsp of lemon juice at a time till the mixture is loosened.

I really like this as a topping or sandwich filler for plain oat bran pancakes, but I also use it as a side salad for grilled chicken breast.

Also a great alternative sandwich filler for non-Dukan dieters.

Variations: Replace the tuna with diced grilled chicken breast.
