MEDITERRANEAN TUNA SALAD



Mediterranean Tuna Salad image

I found the original recipe in an article and tweaked it to my taste. Have to say that I like this Mediterranean version of tuna salad better than normal mayo/prepared mustard version. Spread into pita bread or on sandwich bread and enjoy... I like to add slices of Swiss or Cheddar cheese and a handful of fresh spinach leaves.
