If you don’t like tuna, use something else because the presentation of this dish is a winner.
Want to keep it simple? Make tzatziki dip. It is easy and delicious.

None of these are my creations so if you don’t like the recipe, don’t complain over here. haha But I would love my “chef” friends to add their adjustments or recommendations. You always have helpful ideas!
I hope you found something new to try!
