Shelly's Healthy Tuna, Lime and Veggie Salad

Submitted by Ms B.

"I adopted this recipe after Shelly left the site. Shelly's quest for a healthy lifestyle and aversion to mayo makes this the perfect salad for her or anyone who is low-carbing. Shelly says that it's fresh, easy and has a great lime flavor. Based on a recipe from Everyday Food magazine."

I halved this and added some honey to the dressing. I liked it but my family was not fond of it. I think next time I may try adding peaches... Thanks for posting!

I made this for my mom, and she loved it. I completely forgot the green beans, but it was really light and delicious. I will remember next time. Thanks so much for posting!
