Ingredients

2 ounce skinless, boneless sardines in water
one six-ounce can chunk light tuna, packed in water and drained*
mayonnaise, to taste
2 tablespoon sneaky chef white bean purée*, or store-bought hummus
one 6-ounce can chunk light tuna, packed in water and drained
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 tablespoon wheat germ
one 6-ounce can chunk light tuna, packed in water and drained
mayonnaise, to taste

Directions

Sardines have almost no mercury and lots of IQ-boosting omega-3 oils. Mixing them in with the tuna fish your kids already love gives them an instant nutritional boost. Start by mixing in 2 ounces of sardines per 6 ounces of tuna, and over time, gradually increase the amount of sardines until there are equal parts sardines and tuna (or even more sardines, eventually — this is possible!). Continue to stir in mayonnaise or whatever you normally add to your child’s tuna fish and serve on sandwich bread.
In a small bowl, mix together all of the ingredients and serve on sandwich bread.
Start by mixing in the 1 tablespoon of wheat germ per 6-ounce can of tuna, along with mayonnaise to taste, and, over time, gradually increase to 2 tablespoons of wheat germ.
