Mediterranean Tuna Salad
Serves: 8 to 10
Time: 10 min
A great way to serve this salad is to slice a 9-inch round focaccia in half horizontally, fill it with the tuna, and press a plate down on top of the round bread. Place a heavy can or weight on top for an hour, and the dressing will seep into the bread. Slice and serve. FromThe Whole Foods Market Cookbook.
Ingredients
- 4 (6.0-ounce) cans albacore tuna, drained well
- 1 (14.0-ounce) can quartered artichoke hearts, drained
- 1/2 cup chopped red bell or piquillo peppers
- 3/4 cup sliced Greek olives
- 1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 3 fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried or 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Method
In a large bowl, combine tuna, artichokes, bell peppers, olives, onion, parsley, garlic, oregano, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt and pepper and gently fold together until well combined.
Serve on sliced bread as a sandwich or spoon over a green salad.

Planning for the journey of your life
Finally, it’s 2021! The new year is upon us. For many, a new year can mean new beginnings and changes. Now is a good time for self-reflection. How would you like the new year to be different from the last? What do you want to change? I’m not talking New Year’s resolutions where less than half of people who make them are successful.¹ I’m talking sustainable lifestyle changes . What makes people successful at making lasting changes? Self-efficacy: the amount of personal control that we expect to have over a behavior in difficult situations.²

Anxiety is a disorder that affects more than 20 million Americans. Characterized by irrational feelings of fear, worry, and dread, anxiety can also manifest physically as a racing heart, racing mind, and shortness of breath. People who suffer from anxiety can find relief in a variety of ways, including lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise, supplements that are shown to help alleviate the symptoms, and even pharmaceutical intervention. Often times, a combination of these methods culminate to be the most effective way to overcome anxiety. Finding the right combination that works to ease your symptoms can take time, so be patient with yourself if you’re struggling to find that balance. Below are some supplements that research suggests can help treat symptoms of anxiety. Talk to your health care practitioner about which ones will work best for you.
For some folks, the best part of the holiday meal is the leftovers—think turkey sandwiches, stuffing scrambles, and pot pie. (Yes, we are “some folks,” and we imagine that if you’re still reading, you are, too.) This pot pie recipe gets its comforting creaminess thanks to Trader Joe’s Condensed Cream of Portabella Mushroom Soup, but eschews the classic butter crust in favor of ready-to-bake Trader Joe’s Buttermilk Biscuits. This means you can enjoy those leftover Turkey Day flavor favorites without breaking out the dough roller. Play it again, Joe!
