Abuela’s Tuna Salad

I started 2021 with some of my favorite family memories. My grandmother ALWAYS had this tuna salad in the fridge. She had it in this green container that I can picture it so vividly. I loved how the salad had this crunch. When I learned the crunch was apples my mind was blown!  It has…
