Easy Tuna Salad Kicked Up A Notch – Spicy Tuna Ceviche
The holidays are coming, we’re going to be eating a ton of delicious meals and desserts. But, most will be heavy. And totally fattening. That’s the fun part, right? What if I said I’ve got a super easy tuna salad that you can sneak in now for a lighter, fresher meal. And then also enjoy all year long? This is a wild caught Spicy Tuna Ceviche we’re making over here! 100% fresh. All natural ingredients. Ethan eats tons of tuna salad and when we made this the 1st time, he asked what was so different. No mayo, no cream stuff, nada. Here, let me show you!

Wow, that is so colorful and looks delicious. I don’t think I have ever eaten tuna fish without some form of mayo. (and I’m not a big mayo eater – so I think I’d love this recipe!)

I haven’t tried Ocean Naturals – so I am going to keep an eye out for that brand in the store. The recipe sounds really good. I love cilantro and jalapenos in my tuna.
