Julian's Festive Tuna Salad

This is my friend Julian’s recipe for Tuna Salad. It is a spicier and heartier alternative to the mundane, mayonnaise-saturated Tuna Salad that most have grown accustomed to.

INGRIDIENT

4 (5 ounce) cans tuna, packed in olive oil

1 red onion, diced

1 orange bell pepper, diced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained

1 (4 ounce) can green chile peppers, chopped

¼ cup mayonnaise (Optional)

2 teaspoons ground cumin

salt and pepper to taste

¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro (Optional)

1 tablespoon spicy salsa verde to taste

DIRECTION

Step: 1

In a mixing bowl, combine tuna, red onion, orange bell pepper, red bell pepper, black beans, canned chile peppers; mix in mayonnaise if desired. Season with cumin and salt and pepper; mix in cilantro, and salsa verde if desired.
