Spicy Sardine Salad Sandwich
Sardine lovers, it's time to put down the tuna sandwich and make this spicy sardine salad sandwich instead. It's nutrient-dense, offers a healthy dose of omega-3s, vitamin D, and calcium, and it's filling. You'll love this new use for canned sardines.
Servings: 2 sandwiches
Ingredients
- 2 cans of King Oscar's Spanish Style Skinless and Boneless Sardines, drained
- 1 TBSP of mayonnaise
- 1 TBSP stone ground mustard
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions
- 1 rib of celery, diced
- 1 TBSP drained capers
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1 TBSP freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 TBSP chopped fresh parsley
- 4 slices of whole grain bread, toasted
- A few leaves of lettuce or mixed greens
Instructions
- Drain the oil from the sardine tin and transfer the fillets into a mixing bowl. Flake the fillets with a fork until they break into chunks, like you would with canned tuna. Add the mayo, mustard, scallions, celery, capers, lemon zest, lemon juice, and chopped parsley. Stir everything until you’ve got a cohesive blend.2 cans of King Oscar's Spanish Style Skinless and Boneless Sardines, drained
