Pesto tuna (recipe)


  1. Make sure the tuna is as well drained as possible, I squeeze mine in a sieve.
  2. Mix with pesto and pepper to taste.
  3. If you want a more\spreadable\ consistency, mix in the mayonnaise.
  4. A little lemon juice adds some zing if you like a more tangy flavour.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 20minutes to allow flavours to meld.
  6. Serve either as a sandwich or on crackers.
