Preparation

Step 1

Drain the tuna then add it to a big bowl.

Next add all the goodies including

1/4 cup chopped kalamata or mixed olives, 2 Tablespoons minced red onion, 2 Tablespoons chopped fire roasted red peppers

(I don’t even know what inspired me to add them but I loved the addition!!)

Three cheers for only needing to clean a bowl, cutting board, and Tablespoon after making this dish!

Finally add then mix to combine.

To serve the Mediterranean Tuna Salad in a tomato cup, choose a large ripe tomato then slice it into sixths without cutting all the way through. Gently pry it open then scoop the salad into the center and serve!
