This recipe was inspired by the one on the back of the Bumble Bee Chipotle Tuna & Olive Oil packets. I wanted to see if I could simplify it by switching out the bell pepper, onions, and tomatoes for salsa. It was a success, though it is not as fancy as theirs.

*This recipe is gluten-free if you make sure that your salsa does not have glucose as a thickening agent.

*This recipe is not truly paleo, since it has grain in it. Some doctors and diets may allow you to have some brown rice though, which is why I say this is paleo too.
