Ingredients
- 400 g half peaches in syrup
- 400 g natural tuna Drained well
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- Salt
- Pepper
Préparation
- Drain the peach halves thoroughly in syrup and place them on a plate or serving dish.
- Drain the tuna au naturel, then flake it into a bowl.
- Add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt and pepper.
- Mix until you have a creamy but not too runny filling.
- Top each half peach with the tuna mixture.

Notes
For a cooler version, add chives, capers, or a little lemon zest.
For a lighter version, replace some of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or cottage cheese.
Tuna peaches can be made a few hours in advance and stored in the refrigerator. Drain the peaches well to prevent them from releasing too much syrup on the plate.
