What You’ll Need

How We Did It

2. Chop celery and add to tuna.
3. Add mayonnaise and mix tuna, celery, and mayonnaise (until to desired consistency — if you need more mayonnaise, feel free to add more!).
4. Place tuna in fridge to chill.
5. Peel cucumbers before cutting(not neccessary however — great source of fiber!).
6. Cut cumcumbers into 2–3 inch chunks.
7. Hallow out chunks with a small spoon (leave a small amount of cucumber at the bottom so tuna does not fall out.
8. Stuff cucumber with tuna.
9. Serve cold and enjoy!
