Why stick with just a traditional-style tuna salad when you can add crunch and texture with some awesome fresh veggies? Try my creation to mix it up for a fresh new change. Serve with crackers, on a bed of your favorite salad greens. Makes 2 generous portions or can easily make 3 to 4 salad portions. Enjoy!
