Until this day, I had relief on swiss cheese to accompany my tuna salad. But now, I know how great a tuna feta salad sandwich is.

I was missing out all this time. Tuna and feta cheese are a match made in heaven.

Promise me you won’t miss out on this combo anymore.

Honor your hunger with this delicious sandwich. Serve it with extra crackers or on a bulky Kaiser roll for a high carb lunch and extra deliciousness.

How to Make Tuna Salad with Feta

Here are my best tips for making your new favorite feta tuna salad

  • Toast your bread – whether it’s a kaiser roll, wrap, sourdough, etc.
  • Mix all of the spices with your tuna and taste. Adjust to your preferences.
  • Place your arugula on the bottom and layer the feta tuna salad on top

For my next tuna salad with feta, I’ll use a nice Kaiser roll. So there’s more bread to soak up this feta tuna goodness.

So far, I’ve had it on pita bread and on toast. I really can’t decide which I love better!

  1. baked oatmeal is so good! with lots of berries 🙂 and i definitely make bowls like that for breakfast! 😀 or snack… or dessert… or lunch. or anytime, lol. but always on top of yogurt 😀 😀

  2. I thought your food models were real food at first! I want try that deep dish pie from Chocolate Covered Katie, was it pretty easy to make? Hope you’re having a great week!

    1. Yes – it was really easy and really delicious! I know, the food models look so real. If I’m not careful, I May mistake it for my real lunch 🙂

  3. Ooooh that sandwich from Alexander Michael’s looks amazing! And french fries are totally my weakness. That restaurant has been on my list to try for a while now, I am glad y’all enjoyed it!

    1. Yes, you need to go! It’s really small, so go early or just grab a seat at the bar. It’s more about the experience 🙂

  4. I filled out my bracket! I have UNC taking it too… hope it’s not wishful thinking. Kansas is looking strong…

    Love that tuna salad recipe! Geek yogurt goes in every salad I make now days.

    1. Yay, Tar Heels! I think of all the recent years, this is their best chance. I love Marcus Paige. Yep – now that I’ve had Greek Yogurt I can never go back to mayo!

  5. I love the sound of this! I just recently got back into eating tuna and this sounds like a great way to change it up!

  6. I agree. Sometimes french fries just hit the spot. 🙂 Thank the Lord that He made our bodies to process so many different kinds of foods. :)Those pitas looks AMAZING.

  7. Feta is seriously a game change. I never regret adding it!
    Totally agree about the french fries. I’ve been craving curly fries for like a month now and I think Terry and I are going to go get some today!

    1. When I have french fries on the mind, I’ve got to have them. Then I’m good for a little while!

  8. I have a tub of feta that i really need to use so I’m excited for this! Feta and avocado is always a winning combo. That steak sandwich… Yaassss
