These faux tuna sandwiches are so delicious you can have them any time of the day. The recipe comes straight from our good friend Dr. Neal Barnard’s new book, The Power Foods Diet. It was also prepared live during Episode 16 of Cook Live with Chrissy & Dr. Kristi. The video of Episode 16 can be found after the recipe below.
