So I just got back from my carb-filled, booze-fueled couples trip to Punta Cana, and I am in full detox mode. I’d seen this recipe on Pinterest a few weeks back and decided it was just the thing I needed to get back on the road to clean eating. It’s packed with leafy vegetables, fiber and iron, but the tuna salad mixed in still makes it creamy and delicious. My husband has already begged me to make another batch and my picky five-year-old told me it was the best salad she’s ever had. Score! Check it out below:
Only 10 ingredients and 10 minutes to crunchy, tangy glory!
