Deli-Style Tuna Salad On Toasted Croissants
"This is also great between a tortilla as a wrap, bread slices or scooped on a bed of lettuce, which ever way you serve it this will be a huge hit! Cooked hopped chicken breasts may be used in place of the tuna cooked turkey also will work, you will need to adjust the curry powder to taste or you may omit, if I am making this with chicken or turkey I also add in some finely chopped garlic dill pickles. Plan ahead the tuna mixture needs to chill for a few hours before using."
