Ginger Tuna, Cucumber and Radish Sandwiches

Another use for the radish and a no-cook recipe...what more do you need?

This is a great recipe that is simple and takes a twist on the common tuna sandwich with celery. Sometimes you just want a different crunch and fresh radishes and cucumbers will do the trick.

Also, the Asian influences of the ginger and rice vinegar are a welcoming and refreshing take on the mayo laden tuna sandwich.

Ingredients:

- 2 cans of tuna (6 oz cans) - packed in water preferred
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 2 tsp fresh ginger - peeled and finely chopped
- 4 scallions/green onions (green and white parts) - cut into 1/4 inch rounds
- 1/2 of medium sized cucumber (hot house preferred) seeded, quartered and cut into thin slices
- 4 radishes - cut into thin rounds
- 8 slices of fresh whole wheat bread (or other bread of your choice)

Process:

1) Drain tuna

2) Whisk rice vinegar, olive oil and ginger in small container until mixed, put aside

3) Combine rest of ingredients in bowl

4) Dress ingredients with ginger mixture

5) Place on bread
