Mediterranean tuna salad with lemon, red pepper, and oregano

This easy tuna salad recipe is bursting with Mediterranean flavors—and it is ready in just 20 minutes. Serve it on its own, on a sliced of toasted wheat bread, or atop a bed of peppery arugula or milder-flavor baby spinach. We’ve opted for plain Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise to give this dish a boost of protein while maintaining its creaminess. You’ll need just half a lemon to produce enough zest and juice for this recipe. Red bell peppers give this dish color and sweetness, but you can substitute a yellow or orange one. Don’t substitute a green bell pepper though, as their flavor isn’t sweet enough
