Dijon-Cilantro Tuna Salad on Multi-Grain Bread

Summer is here in full swing!! It's been so wonderful to have all the outdoor concerts and beach picnics! The other day I shared dinner on the beach in Seaside with my girlfriend Marti. It was such a blessing and you forget how wonderful it is to sit on the beach enjoying the beautiful sunset and laughing with your friends. The summer brings friends and families together with its sunny days and beautiful nights.. making you realize the important things in life! Laugh, smile, share wine, eat food, tell each other you love them and create memories to talk about now and forever!!

Where is a great new recipe perfect for any picnic or sitting and watching one of the great local bands in the amphitheater with a cool glass of white wine.. I recommend Saracco, Moscato D'Asti from Italy.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup of plain non-fat yogurt ( I love Stonefield or Dannon)
6 Tablespoons sweet pickle relish
2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
2 Tablespoons whole grain mustard
2 6-ounce solid albacore tuna packed in water, drained
1/2 cup of chopped red onion
1/2 cup fresh cilantro chopped
12 slices of multi-grain bread

Mix the first four ingrediants in a large bowl and then mix in Tuna. Add onion and cilantro and mix well. Cover and chill for atleast 30 mins. Spoon 1/2 cup of tuna on six bread slices and top with tomato slices and arugla. Top off with bread slices and enjoy!!! Can also be eatin served with crackers or pita bread. Quick and easy!
