method

  1. Wrap tuna in plastic and freeze for at least 6 hours to ensure food safety.
  2. Remove from freezer and let sit at room temperature for 5 minutes.
  3. Using a very sharp knife, slice tuna paper-thin (about 1/8 inch), arranging slices on a chilled plate.
  4. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon-lime juice.
  5. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
  6. Scatter capers, red onion, parsley, and pomegranate seeds over the top.
  7. Finish with a sprinkle of fleur de sel.
  8. Serve immediately with whole grain crostini or seed crackers.

the swaps that make it work

Crispy crostini or crackers
→ Whole grain crostini (homemade) or seed crackers
Whole grains provide more fiber and stable blood sugar; seeds add minerals and healthy fats that support bone density and steady energy.
blood sugar & pre-diabetesbone density (I'm shrinking!)
Classic garnish (capers, red onion, parsley only)
→ Added pomegranate seeds
Pomegranate is rich in polyphenols linked to reduced hot flash intensity and cardiovascular support; adds natural sweetness without added sugar.
