😋This tuna salad recipe is a keeper – but experiment and make it your own.

Eat it as-is or try it with a little wasabi or hot sauce. So good!

It also makes a good meal prep meal and will keep for 1-2 days in the fridge. 

✅TIP: You can use full-fat or low-fat Greek yogurt in this, depending on your preference and what you have on hand.
