Ingredients

    1 bell pepper (green, red, yellow, orange, you pick)
    1 small onion
    3 stalks celery (I include leaves, too)
    1 carrot
    2 cans of chunk tuna in water, drained (I have a family of 5)
    4-8 Tablespoons of low-fat mayo (I start with 1/4 cup or 4 TB, but add more if it doesn't seem to be binding, I try to keep it light, so it's healthier)
    2 TB of relish or a handful of pickles (dill or sweet, your choice)
    I also add a touch of sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste.

Directions

I use a handheld (Kitchen King, 5 cup) food processor to blend the veggies first. Then I mix in the tuna and mayo and relish and blend again. I serve it right in the food processor bowl with with veggies, low-fat crackers, pita, or we make sandwiches. So yummy :)
