Need a fast, easy, nutritional and great tasting dish? This is it! This is the go to recipe any season, but I especially like it in the summer… at the beach. It is fast and easy to prepare, I mean how hard is it to open cans, do a little chopping and measuring? This dish is great to throw in a cooler and go. The longer it marinates the tastier it becomes. Warning: finding a large enough container to mix it in is a challenge, but once your family/friends taste this you will be downsizing your storage container!!
