Always seeking more interesting variations to the standard tuna salad, this one caught my eye. The flavor blend here is really wonderful and work well together; bright and crisp lending themselves to the tuna without competing against it. I used romaine rather than arugula but agree that the slight peppery taste of the latter would have worked a bit better. Thanks.

I am a working mom of a beautiful little girl Keira Lynn. Watching her grow has been such a joy!
My husband and I were married in May of 2006 on the beautiful island of Kauai.
Since discovering this site, I have been cooking much more and have found some incredible recipes. I absolutely love to cook and try out new recipes, but have a handful of family favorites that I make quite often. My husband loves to cook as much as I do. To avoid anyone monopolizing the kitchen, we have to designate who gets to cook dinner in advance. He specializes in Asian cuisine and I love trying new healthy recipes.
