Notes
- Pro tip: I recommend solid white albacore tuna packed in water. Since the Greek dressing already contains olive oil, water-packed tuna keeps the salad light and lets the fresh Mediterranean flavors shine. Chunk light tuna also works well if you prefer.
- Swap the Greek dressing with red wine vinaigrette, Italian dressing, or your favorite store bought dressing.
- The nutrition information does not include the Greek dressing as that has been calculated in a separate post.
- Store this Mediterranean tuna salad in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
