This has kind of been my go-to tuna salad recipe lately. It's also a great side dish to brink to a summer-time cookout.
Lets talk about the flavors...
Sweetness - from the apple
Bite - from the red onion
Creaminess - from the greek yogurt and mayo
And at the very end you get the aromatic flavors of dill...YUMMY!
Gah, just writing about it makes me want to make some.
