We served this to our fourth grade students and it was a huge hit! We served in corn tortillas. This is a great way to get some more veggies into our diet!
Really easy awesome recipe. My recommendation is to add a little cilantro and possibly some lemon juice and put in tortillas for an awesome, non-fried, version of a fish taco.
The Tuna Cabbage Salad was a big hit at our house. I added some dried dill weed, which I always like in tuna salad. Some shredded carrots made it more colorful. Substituting about half the mayo in any recipe with plain yogurt makes sense to me!
