Amount Ingredient
2 can light tuna in olive oil - (6 oz ea) undrained

1/4 cup canned low-salt chicken broth

2 tbl fresh lemon juice

2 tsp drained capers plus
1/4 cup drained capers
Salt to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper to taste
1 pkt baby spinach leaves - (6 oz)
1/2 lb roast turkey breast sliced
Instructions:
Instructions: Blend tuna with oil, mayonnaise, broth, anchovies with oil, lemon juice, lemon peel, and 2 teaspoons capers in processor until smooth, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until cold, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.

Arrange spinach on platter. Arrange turkey atop spinach. Pour sauce atop turkey, smoothing surface with knife. Sprinkle with parsley and 1/4 cup capers.

Comments: This is based on a classic Italian dish, vitello tonnato, in which chilled slices of veal are topped with a puree of tuna, anchovies, capers, and lemon. Here, the veal is replaced by sliced turkey, and the sauce can be made up to a day ahead. (Buy good-quality turkey breast from the deli section of the market.)
