In Skellytown, Texas, Jennifer Harris perks up her fresh-tasting tuna salad with flavorful salsa. Bright corn and green pepper add pretty color to the mixture. Served on a bed of lettuce, it makes a great light lunch.

To make it creamier, I substituded 1/4 c low-fat mayo for 1/4 c of the yogurt. Very tasty. I put it on a whole-grain bread with lettuce and tomato to make a gereat sandwich.
