Sesame Tuna with

                                                                           Gluten-Free
                         Edamame Salad                                     Dairy-Free



             For a lively touch that doesn’t change the flavor, top the tuna with a
             mixture of black and white sesame seeds. You can find the already
             mixed seeds, called gomasio in Japanese, in the Asian food section of
             the grocery store. Edamame is nothing other than fresh soy beans.
             It is rich in nutrients such as folates, manganese, and vitamin K as
             well as protein and dietary fiber.

             On-the-Go Tip: This makes a great take-away lunch. Slice the
             tuna and mix it with the edamame salad. Store it in the refrigerator
             and take it for lunch.
