Yum! The kitties would insist on sharing that one, well, at least the tuna.

...this I would like!
That looks so delicious. I never thought of making a salad based on peas. I love peas, and tuna too. Very clever. Thanks for sharing. Have a great new week. Hugs-Erika
Esta muy rica esta ensalada muy similar ala que yo hago. Te mando un beso y gracias por la receta.
Delicious. Love how it sets, easy to eat. Thank you for sharing. Yums
Yummy!
I would love this salad. Yums. Have a great day.
The ingredients in that dressing tick all the taste boxes for me, so that's a definite for me to try. I am not a fan of tuna though, so I would probably switch that out for a baked, chopped salmon fillet.
Thanks for sharing and have a good week :)
Pocas cosas hay más ricas y sanas que una ensalada, además de lo socorrida, variada y fácil que es. Todo son ventajas con ella. Muy rica la que nos traes hoy.
Bss
Tuna was the last meat I ditched from my life some fifteen or more years ago. I do love me peas! I made shroom stuffed hokkaido squash for lunch today.
Nice salad.
yummy!!! I like tuna so much
in your recipe tuna can be cooked by another style beside friyng methode
This would make a lovely fresh lunch.
This sounds so light and refreshing Angie. Plus I love your dressing, I can taste that hint of sweetness from the maple syrup. You’re right, what’s not to love about this dish!
This looks good, thank you.
Good morning, this is my kind of meal-thanks
This salad looks wonderful! I always have good tuna in my pantry. It's just so versatile!
This looks very delicious 😊
This looks great -- a nice change from tuna/mayo salad. And we always have tuna on hand, so it's an easy dish to whip up in a hurry. Good stuff -- thanks.
