I make this quite frequently. It’s easy, delicious, and, in addition to being a starter, I often serve it with boiled meat or roast beef. When my family is over for dinner last minute or when dinner is missing a little something, this tuna spread is a sure thing. I quickly get the food processor out and get started… and the meal is suddenly “more plentiful”. My daughter especially likes this simple recipe. While she happily dips into the dollop of the spread on her plate, I, sitting right next to her, take it all in and enjoy my whole family. What a wonderful scene this tuna spread makes!
