Tuna Salad with Homemade Mayo
I just love making different salads for lunch these days, with more time in the kitchen I have been able to experiment with different ingredients. I came up with this version of a tuna salad. It is simple, healthy and will keep you very satisfied for lunch. I never thought I could get pat to eat salads but he is loving all my new salad experiments and is a big fan.
