A high-protein, nutrient-dense lunch featuring quality canned tuna, chickpeas, olives, and fresh herbs. Ready in 15 minutes, this dish is perfect for meal prep or a quick weekday refuel.
Drain your tuna thoroughly, but leave just a teaspoon of the oil if it’s packed in olive oil. It adds a subtle depth that emulsifies perfectly with your fresh lemon juice.

Yes. It stays fresh in an airtight container for up to 2 days, though I recommend adding fresh herbs just before serving.
Absolutely. It is naturally gluten-free, dairy-free, and grain-free.
Canned salmon or firm tofu works wonderfully if you prefer a different protein source.
