Did you know that Charlie the Tuna, the official representative of StarKist Tuna, made his first appearance in a TV commercial for StarKist in 1961? The largest bluefin tuna weighed 1,496 pounds and was caught in Nova Scotia on October 26, 1979. I wish the catfish were that big in Cajun waters. We sure could feed a lot of hungry Cajuns.
In this recipe, just a hint of lime and cilantro changes the flavor of this tuna salad to WOW.

| Ingredients |
| 2 cans Starkist Albacore Tuna in water |
1/8 green bell pepper chopped fine |
| 1 rib of celery chopped fine |
1 tbsp cilantro or parsley |
| 1/2 tsp yellow mustard |
2 boiled eggs |
| Season All to taste |
black pepper to taste |
| 1/4 lime juiced |
mayonnaise |
| 2 green onion stems chopped fine |
| |
| | | Directions | Boil the eggs. In a medium bowl, combine the tuna, the juice of the lime, Season All, salt and pepper. Add the finely chopped cilantro, bell pepper, celery and green onions along with the mustard. Add the chopped egg and just enough mayonnaise to make the mixture "wet". Serve in a fresh cut tomato, between your favorite sandwich bread or on a bed of salad greens.
