SPICY TUNA FISH SANDWICH



Spicy Tuna Fish Sandwich image

This is similar to classic tuna fish salad but with a kick. My boyfriend made this when we were out of relish and decided to substitute with jalapenos. It was awesome! I added the relish back in to give it a sweetness along with the spiciness.
