I enjoy my cucumber tuna salad as a light refreshing treat, especially in the Summer. Paired with farm fresh tomatoes, hard boiled eggs, and assorted crackers it’s a delicious treat
for you and your family. Now remember, don’t be afraid to try something new with the cucumbers. I was skeptical at first but that was over 50 years ago and I haven’t looked back!
this looks yummy, can’t wait to try this, never thought to put cucumber with tuna.
I have made this three times already and going to make again today. It is amazing. The cucumbers and that bit of lemon juice makes it. Love it
Well I’m making it yet again. It has turned into a hot day, I don’t want to cook favorite. Love your recipes. Have to check that pulled pork you posted the other day.
