Liven up your basic tuna salad with the flavors, textures and colors of pickled and fresh veggies. I like to use Mezzetta Italian Mix Giardiniera in this tuna salad, which you can find at most supermarkets in the pickle and olive section. If you don’t already use plain Greek yogurt instead of mayo to make tuna light and creamy, give it a try and thank me later! Place a generous scoop of Antipasto Tuna Salad on top of mixed greens, enjoy it with your favorite crackers or have it as a sandwich.
