 This Create 2 Meals In 1 Recipe will save you time and money.  Asian Tuna Salad and Asian Tuna Nachos are full of flavor and completely satisfying.  You will LOVE THEM! 

This is one of our favorites.  It is so easy and not time consuming.  It is nice when you are not standing, for an hour or two, cooking in the kitchen. This recipe does just that.  With hints of ginger and garlic, the Asian flavors of both meals are fantastic.  You do not have to grill your tuna for this recipe, you can pan sear it.  It comes out just as great!

Here are the ingredients you need for both meals.  Keep in mind, you are prepping for both at the same time while cooking the first meal.
