"We've been eating this salad over 25 years. It's best if you make it ahead of time and let it chill well before eating. A fine summertime meal."

  1. KarenT, this is a wonderful make-ahead salad especially when cooking for a crowd for a potluck dinner. I made this the night before. I made two batches...one exactly as you posted and the second batch, I substituted small shrimp for the tuna. This is very easy and one that is sure to please everyone. Thank you so much.
     
  2. Cut this in half and used fake crab (which I shredded somewhat) and served over some chopped lettuce. DH really enjoyed the salad and especially the dressing. This will be a regular in our house especially during the hot summer days. Thank you for posting. Made for Spring PAC 2014.
     
  3. What an easy dish to make ahead of time. I used chicken (DH won't eat tuna). Everyone enjoyed. Thanks for sharing Karen.
