Serving Suggestions

Note

  • This is best made just before serving. However, any leftovers can also be stored in an airtight container in the fridge overnight and either reheated or served as a cold salad.
  • Try different greens depending on what’s in season.  Chinese broccoli is packed full of goodness and is a great alternative.
  • If you don’t have any noodles, try cooking the vegetables without them. You can then serve the greens with the tuna on top of a bed of rice.
