This salad is made a little tropical, served on pineapple slices. A delicious pasta salad with tuna and chopped celery.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 large can (12 ounces) tuna, drained and flaked
  • 3/4 cup chopped celery
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • mixed salad greens
  • 4 pineapple slices

PREPARATION:

Toss tuna and celery together in a bowl. In another bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon juice. Add about half of the mayonnaise mixture or more, to moisten to your taste. Arrange greens on salad plates and top each with a pineapple slice. Spoon tuna salad on each pineapple. Serve any leftover mayonnaise dressing mixture on the side.
Serves 4.
