I made this tuna salad recipe up; it is based on a tabouli recipe. While there is no bulghour in this recipe, you could certainly add it in. (Soak 1 cup bulghour in warm water for 20 minutes. Drain. Squeeze dry. Combine with tuna salad.) Ingredients:
2 (160 g) cans tuna in olive oil |
75 g chopped flat leaf parsley |
1 1/2 teaspoons thyme |
3 stalks green onions |
2 -3 ripe tomatoes, seeded and chopped |
1/2 cup chopped olive |
1 lemon |
1/2 cup olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Squeeze out excess oil from the tuna.
2. Flake the tuna.
3. Add the salt, green or black olives, tomatoes, green onion, thyme, and parsley; mix.
4. Mix the olive oil with the juice from the lemon until somewhat thickened.
5. Pour this over the tuna and the other ingredients.
6. Blend it all with a fork.
7. Adjust seasonings if necessary.
8. Chill for at least an hour.
