Ingredients

  • 2 cups corn thawed from frozen (or 2 cans well drained)
  • 2 cans tuna drained
  • ¼ Red onion finely chopped
  • ½ cup Pickled jalapeños chopped
  • ½ Celery stick diced
  • 1 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1 lime (just the juice)
  • Salt to taste
  • ¼ bunch fresh cilantro chopped

Instructions

  • Add all the ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Mix well.
  • Place in the fridge until ready to serve.
  • If not serving right away, the dressing will sit at the bottom of the bowl. Mix well again and then serve.

Notes

Optional: cherry tomatoes, black beans, or ripe tomatoes
If you’re not a mayo fan, you can substitute with Greek yogurt or sour cream for a creamy texture. You can also try extra virgin olive oil for a different flavor profile. 
To make it spicier, add more pickled jalapenos. Or to reduce any heat, omit the pickled jalapenos altogether.
