Eh, why not?! I had some leftover tuna from my article & video on creative ways to use tuna, so I put together this delicious low-carb slider in about 20 minutes. Try it out – you may fall in love with tuna all over again.
Ingredients for 1 serving:
6oz packet albacore tuna
Three .5oz pieces reduced fat mozzarella
6 baby bella mushrooms
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
1/3 cup chopped red onion
2 heaping tbsp dijon mustard
1 tbsp garlic paste
1/2 tbsp lemon pepper seasoning
sea salt & pepper to taste
Steps:
Set oven to 400F.
Drain excess water from the package of tuna.
Combine all ingredients – except for the mushroom caps – into a large bowl. Mix together.
Remove stems from the mushrooms and scrape out the inside of the cap using a spoon.
Build the sliders. Evenly divide the tuna salad among the 3 sliders.
Top the tuna salad with a piece of mozzarella cheese and then add the mushroom cap as the top bun.
Skewer the entire slider with a wooden kabob stick.
Place the slider on a baking sheet and then wrap foil around the slider to keep it from moving in the oven.
Bake for 15 minutes at 400F.
