Sashimi Tuna Salad With Mint Lime Cilantro Dressing Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Tuna Salad Recipes. (Sashimi Tuna Salad With Mint Lime Cilantro Dressing Recipe). The closest I've been able to come in recreating one of my favorites! The salad will be fairly greasy, but that is how it is in the restaurant version as well. It just doesn't taste nearly as good with only little dressing. I usually use about 3/4 of the dressing, but you may use less or more. Enjoy!
