Lemon Caper Tapenade Tuna Salad

Tuna salad makes for a great snack, a quick lunch, or a light dinner.  However, tuna salad is rarely a special or inspired dish.  This recipe utilizes our Pastamore Lemon Caper Artichoke Tapenade, and this addition gives a fantastic freshness and flavor.  Instead of your typical mayonnaise, this recipe is made with light cream cheese.  The cream cheese offers a rich flavor without the same calories you would find in mayonnaise.  Well this recipe may not make tuna salad the talk of the town, it will at least surprise your taste buds with a great treat.
