Same old tuna salad—not! Albacore tuna partners with brown rice and three fruits that gets dressed with creamy yogurt.

Expert Tips

*To toast coconut, cook in ungreased heavy skillet over medium-low heat 6 to 14 minutes, stirring frequently until browning begins, then stirring constantly until golden brown.

You can sub 1 (6-oz) container of Yoplait® Original 99% Fat Free French vanilla yogurt for the yogurt in this recipe.

Mild-flavored albacore tuna is the only tuna that can be called "white" because it has the whitest flesh, its mark of distinction.

Tried this recipe tonight and have to say...this is not a winner in our home. Did not like the combination of flavors. Will not make again.

Actually, "jimmiej48fan", I added the small red grapes to this salad, and it gave it that Pop of color that it needed, and a little tartness that enhanced the other flavors. Thanks for the idea! I also tried this using small fresh shrimp that I sauteed in butter and, course ground pink pepper corn with a pinch of salt,instead of the tuna.
