Ingredients
  

Tuna salad ingredients:

  • 2 cans oil packed tunafish
  • 1/2 medium red onion
  • 1/4 cup pickled capers
  • 5 –6 medium sized radishes
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • Juice of one lemon
  • 1 tablespoon fresh or 2 tablespoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt and more at the end to taste
  • 1 teaspoon ground pepper

Instructions
 

  • Drain the excess oil off the cans of tuna and add to your mixing bowl.
  • Dice the onion into approximately quarter inch size pieces. Add to the mixing bowl.
  • Cut the top and bottom off the radishes and slice into thin rounds. Add to the mixing bowl.
  • Add the fresh or dried oregano, Salt, pepper, Olive oil, vinegar, and lemon juice.
  • Mix all of the ingredients gently. You want to distribute the ingredients evenly; however you do not want to overmix the tuna and make it mushy. There still should be individual flakes of fish recognizable in the finished dish.
  • The salad pairs perfectly with my green goddess dressing. Give it a try!
