I eat salad for lunch pretty much every day,and it is usually a variant of this recipe. The key to a good salad is to shred everything well and keep all the parts chopped small. It allows you to combine several different flavours in your mouth at once rather than just one large lettuce leaf :) which can be a bit boring. With this tuna recipe, because everything is small, it often mixes with the leaves and everything gets a bit of that lovely tuna taste! I don't even use salad dressing on this one.
