I am not one who beats myself up after eating cheesecake because honestly, I love the stuff. There has to be a balance in what you take into your body in terms of fats and calories though. That’s why I love easy, summer salads as a go to after the cheesecake weekends.

This tuna salad is easy and is so light. It presents well and even kids love it. You can have it at a BBQ as well. Add hard boiled egg if you like. I kept mine simple:

Ingredients:

2 cans tuna in water

1 stalk of celery

1/2 red pepper

1 tbsp mayonnaise

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cucumber

Thoroughly wash vegetables and dice. Prepare tuna by draining water and mashing with the back of a fork until completely flakey. Add mayonnaise and vegetables. Serve on plates with sliced cucumber. 4 servings.
