Citrus Tuna Salad image

Easy to put together, this salad is low cal and low fat. No mayo or sour cream. Serve with saltine crackers, baked tortilla chips or tostadas. I like to add a chopped jalapeno (canned) or a good splash of Mexican hot sauce (Tapatio is very good). Adjust the amount of veggies and citrus juice to your taste. This also packs well for lunches as long as it's kept cold.

This salad is so versatile. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste. I like to add some chopped hard-boiled eggs and a sprinkle of dill.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover tuna. I always have a can or two of tuna in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it in.

I'm not a big fan of mayonnaise, so I used Greek yogurt instead. It worked great and made the salad a bit healthier.

I added some chopped avocado to my salad and it was delicious! The avocado added a creamy texture and a boost of healthy fats.

I used canned tuna for this recipe, but I think it would be even better with fresh tuna. Next time, I'll try to find some at the fish market.

I was skeptical about the celery and red onion, but they added a nice crunch and flavor to the salad. I'll definitely be using this recipe again.
