This is my friend Julian's recipe for Tuna Salad. It is a spicier and heartier alternative to the mundane, mayonnaise-saturated Tuna Salad that most have grown accustomed to. Ingredients:
4 (6 ounce) cans tuna, packed in olive oil |
1 red onion, diced |
1 orange bell pepper, diced |
1 red bell pepper, diced |
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained |
1 (4 ounce) can green chile peppers, chopped |
1/4 cup mayonnaise (optional) |
2 teaspoons ground cumin |
salt and pepper to taste |
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional) |
spicy salsa verde to taste (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine tuna, red onion, orange bell pepper, red bell pepper, black beans, canned chile peppers; mix in mayonnaise if desired. Season with cumin and salt and pepper; mix in cilantro, and salsa verde if desired.
