  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    For a different presentation idea, line 4 individual salad plates with lettuce. Spoon salad onto lettuce.
  • tip 2
    Tuna is high in Omega-3 fatty acids, nutrients that may reduce the risk of heart disease.
