Instructions
- Break apart any clumps of the rice, then add in green onions, red bell pepper, corn, and peas.
- Add the drained flaked tuna to the mix. I like to break apart the tuna with a fork before dumping it in to make sure its not clumpy.
- Seperately, mix together the lemon juice and zest, olive oil, mayonnaise, yogurt, milk and salt and pepper to form your dressing.
