fantastic recipe. let me tell you what i ended up doing with it. i followed directions exactly, except i tripled the recipe to make enough for meals for me for the week. first i ate it as the tuna salad which was simply delicious. then i took the second batch and pureed it in the blender and spread it on good italian bread; topped it with good parm cheese and popped it under the broiler. this was very tasty and so delicious. the third day with the rest of the batch i left as is but heated it up in a saute pan and tossed it with a little more olive oil and linguine. excellent. this recipe has so many things you could do with it and each time it tasted different yet still great. i wouldnt make any changes...thanks for the great versatile recipe!
