Yummy! Easy to throw together and the pepper flakes, peppericinis and garlic took it up to super tasty. Will have again. Thnx for posting. Adopted for Spring 2008 PAC.

This was a nice change from the typical tuna salad. I used some canned chopped green chiles I had leftover from another recipe. Used sharp cheddar instead of American cheese (what I had on hand). Also, I used just a 3 oz pouch of tuna and it was more than enough for one sandwich. Thanks for the recipe!

Loved, loved, loved it!!! I used whole grain bread, Tillamook cheddar, decreased the mustard and increased the mayo. The red pepper flakes and jalapeno add a wonderful and spicy kick! Thanks for sharing a great recipe, FKB!
