This was so light and delicious, the perfect summer time meal. I made as stated apart from adding about 11/2 tablespoons of white balsamic dressing to the tuna. I served ours over salad greens, with tomatoes, olives and goats cheese balls and it was a super dinner. I can see how this would make for a perfect lunch just as is also. A very easy meal to throw together and it combines some of our favourite ingredients, I can see this being made quite a bit this summer. Cheers TasteTester for a fab meal.

Our family moved to Florida from New York in the 90's, so I've brought not only many of the recipes my family has passed down, but have learned to cook some great Southern dishes as well.? When I found RZ, it opened up a whole new world of cooking -- cuisine from different countries, tried-and-true family hand-me-down recipes, and some interesting and delicious dishes I would never have found on my own.
