Tuna Fish Crunch

This recipe was given to me by my mother and is a favourite at our family gatherings. It's ideal as part of a 'Bring and Share' or as an accompaniment to spicy fried chicken. It's a salad and has lots of healthy things in it. But the mayonnaise makes it very fattening. Don't be put off by the strange combination of ingredients - everyone I know who has tried this has loved it.
