A great and simple way to pack in some quality protein and
carbs is to get a can of tuna along with a few slices of bread and whack some
salad and condiments in the ingredients. You will get around 40g of protein and 25g of
carbs which are all useful for building a muscular physique.
Ingredients;
Optional
Make your sandwich a little heartier by topping with lettuce
leaves, tomato slices, avocado slices and a slice of cheese
Directions
- Drain the tuna in a strainer in
the sink. Chop the celery to measure 1/2 cup.
- Peel and chop the onion to
measure 1/4 cup.
- In a medium bowl, mix the tuna,
celery, onion, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
- Spread tuna mixture on 4 bread
slices. Top with remaining bread slices.
Tips:
- Cut celery stalk lengthwise into about 1/2-inch pieces. Place several pieces
together and cut crosswise into 1/4 to 1/2-inch pieces.

sandwich with 3 grams of fat and 240 calories.
