Crunchy EVOO Tuna Salad




I've switched from water packed canned tuna to only buying tuna packed in Extra Virgin Olive Oil. 

When combining it with the other ingredients, DON'T drain it! The olive oil will reduce the amount of mayonnaise you need, resulting in a healthier tuna salad.


Chop all the vegetables shown into a medium size glass bowl.

3 seedless orange mini peppers
3 stalks of celery
5-6 green onions
4 big radishes
also — 4-6 sweet hot pickles


Next add the tuna and oil, breaking that up with a fork. Add just enough mayonnaise to hold everything together the way you like, about 2T of grainy brown mustard, some black and cayenne pepper, and a little garlic salt.

Mix well and serve over fresh baby arugula.

I had this for lunch with one of those biscuit-muffins I made earlier and a side of cucumbers and tomatoes. . .Lin
