Tuscan Tuna Salad

I have to admit I'm getting pretty bored of plain salads and plain tuna and plain everything for lunch.  I'm excited about this one because I can eat it so many different ways - in a wrap, sandwich, salad, on crackers, etc etc.  You could also use a light italian vinaigrette or red wine vinegar.  It was so flavorful and kept me full all day long, which is important for me since I have a fairly active job.  Enjoy!

This looks awesome, I am going to steal it! I make a similar thing with chick peas, tuna, mint and parsley with a balsamic vinaigrette. Thanks for reminding me!
