The Perfect Tuna Salad

Everyone always makes fun of me because I love salads. I have some friends from Mexico and they call me a "Conejo" Rabbit in Spanish, because I like to eat my greens. I have made so many different salads in my life time, too many to count. I am wishing now that I had taken pictures of them and typed up all the recipes. I imagine I would have close to 1,000 or may more. When I started making salads they didn’t have half the variety of tomatoes, mixed greens, and salad fixings like they do today. I would use iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, scallions, and a simple olive oil and red wine vinegar dressing. Now I add all sorts of things to my salads like beans, nuts, olives, and a variety of cheeses to my salads. My kids starting eating salad when they were very little and they love salad too. I consider it a blessing. However, I am a believer in that exposing children to a variety of fruits and vegetable early on makes a world of difference in what they like later in life. I always talk to them about the importance of eating a well-balanced diet and the importance of eating organic fruits and vegetables. Thanks for all your comments. Please follow me on Facebook and Pinterest for additional healthy salad recipes. Until next week. Bon Appetit, Cecelia
