I perk up this fresh-tasting tuna salad with flavorful salsa. Bright corn and green pepper add pretty color to the mixture. Served on a bed of lettuce, it makes a great light lunch. -Jennifer Harris, Skellytown, Texas

TUNA RICE SALSA SALAD



Tuna Rice Salsa Salad image

Sandwiches can get boring so why not try packing a quick salad. If you're eating rice or pasta you can cook a bit extra so there is some left over for lunch the next day. Then add a couple of spoons of flavour-packed salsa dip, a few bits from the store cupboard and hey presto a colourful healthy salad.

1 tsp prepared mustard
1/2 tsp celery seed
3 tbsp chunky salsa ( spicy or mild to suit taste)

Steps:

  • Drain and put tuna in a small mixing bowl. Add all the ingredients except the salsa. mix and taste. Adjust to personal likes. When tuna is mixed to taste, add salsa and mix well. Serve with tortilla chips,corn chips,toast or my personal favorite salt and cracked pepper potato chips. If you want to serve this as a main dish just increase the ingredients to accomodate the number of people you will be serving. You can serve it on lettuce or plain, it is delicious either way. A variation on this recipe is to make tostados with soft tortillas and melt your favorite cheese over the top. Just add a tall glass of frosty iced tea or lemonade to make this meal complete. You can't miss with this one. I consider this one singles friendly.
