Curry Tuna Salad

This one is a bit tough because I don't have an official recipe for it. Feel free to ask questions about quantities if I'm too vague.

Mix the following:
1 can of tuna fish (I prefer Albacore)
curry powder to taste (I like curry so I put in a lot)
a few dashes of cumin
a few dashes of paprika
2-3 tsp Dijon mustard
some splashes of light rice vinegar
1-2 TBSP low fat mayo
a drizzle of grapeseed oil
salt & pepper

Dress a bed of romaine lettuce with just a drizzle of Grapeseed oil and rice vinegar. Scoop the tuna in the middle of the lettuce then top entire salad with pecans or walnuts & craisins.

Serves 2
