Notes

Substitutes:

you may use lemons in place of lime
If you don't have red onions use white
Tuna in water is ok to use too but we prefer packed in oil for this recipe
If you don't have any celery try cucumber or radish for some crunchiness

Storage:

Place leftovers in a container and store in the fridge for up 2-3 days.
Serve cold when ready to eat
We do not recommend freezing
