How to make it
1
• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. (TIP: If you have a toaster oven, feel free to skip preheating—you’ll use it to toast the ciabatta in Step 4.) Place 1 tsp butter (2 tsp for 4 servings) in a small bowl to soften. Wash and dry produce.
• Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Halve ciabatta. Quarter lemon. Trim and halve cucumber lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise into half-moons.
2
• In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine sliced onion, vinegar, 1⁄2 tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4 servings), and 2 TBSP water (4 TBSP water for 4). Season with salt and pepper.
• Cover with plastic wrap; microwave for 30-60 seconds. Remove plastic wrap and set aside to pickle, stirring occasionally, until ready to serve.
3
• Open canned tuna and drain; place in a medium bowl.
• Stir in mayonnaise, sour cream, and half the garlic powder. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
4
• Stir a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of garlic powder into bowl with softened butter. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
• Spread garlic butter onto cut sides of ciabatta; place on a baking sheet. (TIP: For easy cleanup, line baking sheet with aluminum foil first.) Toast on top rack until golden brown, 5-6 minutes. TIP: You can use your toaster oven instead.
• Slice garlic bread into four triangles each.
5
• In a second large bowl, whisk together juice from one lemon wedge, half the mustard, 1 TBSP olive oil, and 1⁄4 tsp sugar(for 4 servings, use juice from two lemon wedges, all the mustard, 2 TBSP olive oil, and 1⁄2 tsp sugar). Season with salt and pepper.
• Add spinach, cucumber, and as much pickled onion as you like (draining first) to bowl with dressing; toss to combine.
6
• Divide salad between bowls. Top with tuna and more pickled onion if desired. Serve with garlic bread and remaining lemon wedges on the side.

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I tracked my meal delivery spending through three summers. The pattern’s embarrassing: June hits, I promise myself I’ll meal prep and eat clean, then by July I’m ordering Chipotle at 9 PM because it’s 95 degrees and I can’t face turning on the stove. August?

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I went vegan for 90 days while working 60-hour weeks.

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent last summer testing every meal delivery service that promised to keep me eating clean while Nashville hit 95 degrees by 10 AM.

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent three months feeding my nephew dinner from meal delivery services. He’s eight, picky as hell, and thinks vegetables are a personal attack.

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I tracked my mom’s Uber Eats spending for a month. $387. That number made me physically uncomfortable.
