Wow your guests with this simple, colorful recipe! Serving this dish with wonton crisps not only keeps the calorie count low, but it also allows the delicate taste of the tuna to shine through. What’s more, by chopping all ingredients early the day of the party (except for the avocado which you chop right before assembling the dish), you can have this made well in advance leaving you more time for other pre-party preparations. Remember … a simple celebration is enjoying your party as much as your guests!
