“No-Tuna” Salad Sandwich
In this vegan version of a tuna salad sandwich, the tuna salad gets extra tang and flavor from pickles and capers. Serve between two slices of your favorite hearty bread for a simple yet satisfying meal.
Note: Mixture will keep covered in refrigerator for 4-5 days, making it great for quick, weekday lunches.
