  3. Make the salad with the base of lettuce, adding the watermelon chopped into cubes, diced green onions and dates that are chopped into smaller cubes. Sprinkle the pistachios over for a garnish.
  4. Once done, slice the tuna into thin, long slices and place on top of the salad.
  5. Make a vinaigrette from the mustard, water and vinegar and drizzle over the tuna and salad.

Simply chop your fruit I served my tuna salad in collard wraps and believe it or not, this was my first time eating collard leaves. I've always used romaine or cabbage leaves as wraps. Do NOT skip the oranges or mango (actually I had to skip the mango due to an allergy) because the sweet really pulls this dish together. I actually added a few fresh squeezes of orange juice to the dressing and would do that again. I also just seared my small tuna steaks whole and then sliced them.
