Our tuna salad has a Mediterranean twist: olives and roasted red peppers. Have this sandwich for lunch at home or work or on a picnic, served with a tomato salad.
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 (6-oz) cans light tuna packed in olive oil, drained
  • 1/2 cup chopped drained bottled roasted red peppers
  • 10 Kalamata or other brine-cured black olives, pitted and cut lengthwise into strips
  • 1 large celery rib, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
  • 1 (20- to 24-inch) baguette
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Green leaf lettuce

Make tuna salad:

  • Whisk together mayonnaise and lemon juice in a large bowl. Add remaining salad ingredients and stir together gently. Season with salt and pepper.

Assemble sandwiches:

  • Cut baguette into 4 equal lengths and halve each piece horizontally. Brush cut sides with oil and season with salt and pepper. Make sandwiches with baguette, lettuce, and tuna salad.
