CRUNCHY TUNA SALAD WITH SHOESTRING POTATOES



Crunchy Tuna Salad With Shoestring Potatoes image

My family has enjoyed this tuna salad for years. The salty crunch of the shoestring potatoes is a great complement to the creamy sweetness of the tuna and carrots. Add shoestring potatoes only at the very last moment as they become soggy after sitting. Make only as much as you will eat because these are not good as leftovers!
