This recipe is a great way to use up leftover pineapple. I always have some leftover pineapple from making smoothies, so this is a great way to use it up.

I'm not a big fan of tuna salad, but this recipe changed my mind. The pineapple and celery add a nice sweetness and crunch that really balance out the flavor of the tuna.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover tuna. I also like to add a bit of chopped hard-boiled egg to the salad for extra protein.

This pineapple tuna salad sandwich recipe is a keeper! The combination of sweet pineapple, savory tuna, and crunchy celery is a perfect balance. I especially love the addition of red onion, which gives the salad a nice bite.
