Ingredients

• 2 slices Gluten-free bread
• 1 can Canned tuna (in water or olive oil, drained)
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise (gluten-free)
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (gluten-free, optional)
• 2 tablespoons Celery (finely chopped)
• 1 tablespoon Red onion (finely chopped)
• 2 leaves Lettuce leaves
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Drain the canned tuna thoroughly and transfer it to a medium-sized mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard (if using) to the bowl with the tuna. Mix well using a fork to break up the tuna and create a creamy mixture.

Step 3

Stir in the finely chopped celery and red onion, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the tuna mixture.

Step 4

Season the tuna mixture with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix again to combine.

Step 5

Lay out the slices of gluten-free bread. Place a lettuce leaf on one side of each slice to create a barrier that helps prevent the bread from becoming soggy.

Step 6

Spoon the tuna mixture evenly onto one slice of bread over the lettuce leaf.

Step 7

Top with the second slice of bread, lettuce side down, to complete the sandwich.

Step 8

Using a serrated knife, cut the sandwich in half, if desired, and serve immediately.
