Lemon Pepper Tuna Salad with Ocean Naturals Wild Premium Tuna

We paired Oceans Naturals Wild Premium Tuna with gorgeous peppers, a colorful and healthy lunch that is naturally delicious.  Most if not all of our food is organic or local.  We’re very health conscious about what we put into our body these days, after all it’s the only one you get in this lifetime.   I’ve shared other healthy tuna recipes before as we’re big fans of tuna and it eat quite often about 2-3 times a month.  Tuna is always the main ingredient in any tuna recipes that we come up with.

Another thing we really appreciate is with Ocean Naturals you can learn more about where your specific tuna came from by visiting their website and entering the code on the can.  I don’t know about you but I like to know where my food comes from!

I actually really like vegetable pizza.  Since having my daughter I still crave food maybe it’s because I’m nursing? […]
