5-Ingredient Spicy Tuna Cucumbers
Description
Lunch can be a fraught time, whether you’re working from home or going into the office. Eating out gets expensive. Leftovers are life savers, but they get old (literally) after a while. Making something from scratch isn’t usually realistic unless it’s of the turkey sandwich variety.
Ingredients
- 1 (5-ounce) can tuna (packed in oil or water), well-drained
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, preferably Kewpie
- 1 tablespoon sriracha, sambal oelek, or chili garlic sauce
- 1/2 English cucumber or 2 Persian cucumbers
- Furikake, to taste
Directions
- Gather the ingredients.
- Mix 1 (5-ounce) can tuna (packed in oil or water), well-drained with 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, preferably Kewpie and 1 tablespoon sriracha, sambal oelek, or chili garlic sauce until well combined. I like to use a fork to break up the pieces of tuna and mix everything well.
- Halve 1/2 English cucumber or 2 Persian cucumbers lengthwise, then use a small spoon to scoop out the seeds.
- Spoon the tuna mixture into the cucumber, piling it high.
- Top with furikake, to taste.
