Jackfruit Tuna Salad

This is a versatile veggie dish. It is perfect as an entree on top of a tortilla with melted low pro cheese or used as a dip for plantain chips. I have packed it in tupperware to serve as a low pro side option at a BBQ or in a restaurant to make a salad a touch more hearty.

It tastes best if you can make it at least a day in advance and is super easy! No bake for the win on those hot summer nights.

Let's get right to it...recipe below.
