Light Tuna Salad

To prepare a delicious and refreshing salad, we start by gathering all the necessary ingredients. So, we need fresh tomatoes, onion, dill, lettuce, canned tuna, green or black olives, depending on preferences, and natural yogurt.

The first step is to wash the tomatoes well under a stream of cold water, ensuring that we remove any traces of pesticides or dirt. After drying them, we cut them into small cubes so that each bite is full of flavor. We continue with the onion, which we peel and chop finely. If you prefer a milder flavor, you can soak it in cold water for a few minutes before adding it to the salad.

The fresh dill is the ingredient that will bring a note of freshness to the dish. We chop it finely and add it to the bowl with vegetables. The lettuce should be crunchy and fresh, so we wash it well and tear it into small pieces, ensuring that we do not use wilted or yellowed leaves.

Now it's time to add the tuna. We drain it well from the oil in the can, then break it into pieces with a fork so that it integrates perfectly into our mix. We slice the olives into thin rounds and add them alongside the other ingredients. They will bring a slightly salty flavor, perfectly complementing the taste of the salad.

To bind all the ingredients together, we add the natural yogurt. This will not only provide a pleasant creaminess but will also balance the flavors in the salad. We mix everything carefully to ensure that each ingredient is well distributed and that the yogurt evenly coats the vegetables and tuna.

Finally, we can season the salad with a little salt and pepper to taste, and for an extra splash of freshness, we add a few drops of lemon. This salad is perfect as an appetizer or as a main dish on a hot summer day. It is served immediately but can also be kept in the refrigerator to be enjoyed later. The flavors will intensify, and the texture will remain crunchy and pleasant. Enjoy your meal!
