I I thought it was great!! And would definatley make it again. I normally put chopped apple in my tuna salad but pineapple was very suprised that this was delicious. I have to admit I did not have all the exact ingredients... I sub the yogurt for mayo. and celery for onion and I also used walnuts I believe. after all that It was still delicious. I did grill them last night for dinner but for lunch today just had regular with some lettuce. Thanks for the new addition.

This recipe did not taste well to me. The pineapple and relish did not agree with each other. It may not be for me, or it may be an acquired taste.

Do not be afraid!
I made this recipe for 5 adults and we all LOVED it. My only complaint is that I thought the relish was a little too overpowering, I wanted to taste the pineapple a bit more. I will play around with the amount and/or brand of relish. It is a great recipe though and I will make it often.
