EASY Tuna Ceviche

Ceviche is typically made with raw seafood and is refrigerated in lime or lemon juice to "cook" the fish with the acidity, but my version of ceviche I use canned tuna and I adding celery to give it that extra crunch! Eat your ceviche with tortilla chips or plantain chips.

Ingredients:
2 cans of solid white tuna, drained and chopped
2 medium sized tomatoes, diced
1/2 of a medium sized onion, diced
1/2 a stalk of celery, finely chopped
1 jalapeno, finely chopped and seeded
1 garlic clove, minced
juice from 2 lemons
a small handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
pinch of salt and pepper

Directions:
1. To a blender add in tomatoes, onion, and jalapeno, blend to desired consistency.**

2. Mix all ingredients together, cover, and refrigerate for 20 minutes. (This really brings out all of the flavors.)
Serve with tortilla chips or plantain chips

** If you want a chunky ceviche skip the blending step and mix all the ingredients together**
