    Oh my WORD this was AMAZING!! I love that I'm getting good fats with the avocado, instead of using mayo! Honestly, I think this is one of the best tuna sandwiches I have EVER had. Maybe the best sandwich altogether!! - 5/22/08

    The ingredient list is missing the Horseradish. I only noticed because it is listed on the nutritional breakdown page. - 5/10/10

    This was a great recipe, thanks for sharing. I added extra avocado because I had one to use up from my CSA fruit box. When I was in the garden to get the parsley I also grabbed some basil, rosemary, thyme and sage just for fun. It was fabulous!! - 8/31/10

    I basically tripled the amount of tuna to up the protein and the flavor...but really really good. Will become a lunch staple. - 8/29/10

    I was craving tuna salad for lunch today and wanted to find a recipe that wasn't overloaded with mayo. I am so happy I found this recipe. I had never thought to put avocado in a tuna salad, but it was so delicious! I added some chives and garlic to it and served it on bread. - 5/23/10

    I am eating it right now, and it's incredibly delicious! The avocado is an incredible substitute for mayo on any sandwich! This has moved to the top of my favorite tuna recipes. - 2/3/10

    I messed up - did not have pitas so I put this on regular white bread - pretty soggy. I'll try it with pita bread next time. - 11/10/09

    I did a variation on this recipe: I added chopped celery and cilantro to the tuna then I put it on a bed of lettuce with the biggest losers spicey guacomola, olives, tomato, and sliced almonds flavored with tomatoe basil. I did not put in the cider or parsley flakes - 4/30/11

    My husband can't have onion, so i skipped it and put in extra fresh squeezed lemon juice but put it on a fresh green salad mix instead of pita to reduce calories - and we loved it. - 7/11/08

    I found it bland, it lacked the tanginess I like in tuna salad, but the texture is great. - 6/12/08

    This was fantastic. I served it in flour tortillas rather than pitas and it worked well, but I'm confident pitas would taste great, too. My boyfriend was amazed that this didn't have any mayonnaise in it. - 5/17/08
