Carla's Healthy Carrot & Tuna Salad image

This is something I've been making for years but never thought to post. Tuna salad complete with shredded carrots, red onion, crunchy celery, sun-dried tomatoes and Parmesan cheese - enough to satisfy the even the healthiest of appetites. It is great for salads and sandwiches - I like it especially for dinner topped on a large bed of salad greens to make a filling - high protein meal.

I'm not a fan of mayonnaise, so I used Greek yogurt instead. It worked out great!

I'm not a big fan of tuna salad, but this recipe changed my mind. The sweetness of the carrots and the tanginess of the dressing really balance out the flavor of the tuna. I will definitely be making this again.
