Tuna Tacos image

This is a tuna taco recipe I created 25 years ago. It is easy, quick, and very tasty. When served with crackers it makes a really good light snack or appetizer. I find that once you start eating them you really can't stop. I like to serve this with a chicken rice. To lighten the recipe, you can eat with crackers.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but these tacos were a disaster. The tuna was mushy and the flavors were all wrong.
