Grilled Tuna Salad Santorini image

This wonderful salad has all the flavors and scents of a Greek island. You can grill the tuna specifically for the salad, or, make extra when you barbecue and use the leftover grilled tuna the next day to make this. I recommend serving this over a bed of red leaf or butter lettuce. Cooking time does not include grilling the tuna.
