• Maple-Glazed Tuna
• 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons real maple syrup
• juice of 1 lime
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 4 6 ounces tuna fillets
• salt and freshly-ground pepper
• 4 cilantro sprigs
• Pear and Potato Salad
• 1/4 cup olive oil

1. 1. Whisk together the mustard, maple syrup, lime juice, and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Set aside.
