Every since I could chew I’ve loved peppers. My parent’s had a garden in our backyard and one huge section was dedicated to just peppers from sweet to hot they grew them. I use to eat my ham and cheese sandwiches with green pepper strips on the side, not chips. I still love peppers to this day. I could just eat them plain. I’m a huge veggie eater and we always have peppers in our home.
Lately I’ve been trying to eat more fish. My mom used to make a pasta salad with peppers, onions, tuna, elbow noodles, and mayonnaise. As much as I love eating that I don’t like how I felt after eating it. Mayo, pasta.. So instead I chose to leave those two ingredients out, and still enjoy my mother’s salad – and that’s where Tuna Pepper Salad takes form.
Tuna Pepper Salad
Makes 6 servings – 10 minute recipe
2 Red Bell Peppers
2 Green Bell Peppers
1 Medium Sweet Onion
2 Cans Solid White Tuna
1 Heaping Teaspoon Plain 0% Chobani Greek Yogurt
1/4 Teaspoon Dijon Mustard
1/2 Teaspoon Lemon Juice
Pinch of Salt & Pepper
1 Medium Sweet Onion
2 Cans Solid White Tuna
1 Heaping Teaspoon Plain 0% Chobani Greek Yogurt
1/4 Teaspoon Dijon Mustard
1/2 Teaspoon Lemon Juice

Start by washing the peppers. Chop peppers and onions and set aside.
Open and drain the water from the tuna. Use a fork to mash tuna.
Add yogurt, mustard, lemon, salt and pepper. Mix well.
Once mixed toss in the peppers and onions
Mix it all up – enjoy on flat breads, crackers,
or you could just it on it’s own because it’s that good.
Wow, sounds so good and your pictures are beautiful!
This sounds absolutely delicious!
and it looks so pretty too
That looks delicious and the pictures are just wonderful!
I must try this. I don’t care for green bell peppers so I’ll try the orange and yellow and red. Thanks
This looks delicious, I’ll have to give it a try.
Peppers add the right amount of “kick” to just about anything. Even though I don’t like Tuna but the I think I’d try this substituting Chunk White Chicken instead.
Hmm that looks really good, I love peppers too!
It’s still hot here and this looks like the perfect refreshing lunch
That would be such a beautiful dish to serve! The colors are gorgeous!
I love that this is made with yogurt and no mayo. Every tuna salad I have seen has had mayo and I can’t stand it. Will have to try this one.
This looks so colorful and healthy… I’ve never made tuna salad using yogurt before, but will be trying this soon!
What a pretty meal!
This looks so colorful, light, and delicious!
this sounds like something I would LOVE!!!
