  I think this is a good basic recipe, I have changed the tuna for chicken and fresh cooked salmon and also added some fresh chillies, when they were in the fridge.

  Not such an easy dish - and ended up looking more like baby food.

  Made this a few times for buffets, has always gone down well. Very easy to make. If you're in a rush then rinse your rice in cold water so you don't have to wait for it to cool. (I omit the peas.)

  this is an amazing idea! although to make it a bit more calorie friendly i used fat free greek yogurt instead of mayonaise and used brown rice instead of white! will definetly be making this again since it's so easy to do! :D

  Is this healthy if it has mayo in it?

  I liked this, and my other half LOVED it! It needed a LOT of seasoning (possibly because I didn't use olives?) and I used Greek yoghurt as I don't like mayonnaise, but it was very filling and very quick to make considering it fed us for a couple of days. I halved the ingredients and ended up with about six portions which did us nicely. I'll be making this next week, too - and am left wondering how well it would work with chicken instead of tuna, to give us a bit of variety each week?
