I like taking the albacore tuna, baby carrots, onion, celery and LITERALLY a drop of olive oil and putting it all into my food processor until it is all finely chopped. There is no need for mayonaise (or even the oil really) because the extra veggies give it extra flavor and moisture. I usually eat it on wheat wraps or when I am being really bad, french bread. You just have to play with how much of each veggie you like until you get it to your own specs!

sounds yummy!

This is great, Jelly!

We will soon have a new-fangled web site for MyDietSolutions, and I'll include this on our list of recipes if that's all right with you.

Using it is totally fine with me. I have tons more recipes that I use I just have to have the time to sit down and put them on here!.. I am glad you like this one its one of my faves.
