Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, lime juice, lime zest, and sugar until well combined. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Gradually drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously until the vinaigrette emulsifies and thickens slightly. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (3 minutes)

03

Step

In a separate bowl, gently combine the drained and chunked tuna with the diced tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, parsley, and capers. Be careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Drizzle the prepared vinaigrette over the tuna mixture. Gently fold to coat, being mindful to keep the tuna in appealing chunks. (2 minutes)

05

Step

To assemble the bites, place a spoonful of the tuna mixture onto each pretzel crisp. Top with 2 Kalamata olive slices and a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the pretzel crisps for a minute or two before adding the tuna mixture.
Feel free to adjust the amount of lime juice and sugar in the vinaigrette to suit your taste.
If you don't have Roma tomatoes, any ripe tomato variety will work well.
These tuna bites are best enjoyed immediately to prevent the pretzel crisps from becoming soggy.
