Salad with tuna, mozzarella and honey-mustard dressing

People often call tuna "sea chicken" because of the extreme similarity of the tastes of these two products. Also, tuna is a record holder for the content of nutrients among all varieties of red fish. Today we suggest you get the maximum benefit from this fish by using it as the basis for a vegetable salad. In addition to tuna, the salad will also include fresh vegetables, cheese and dressing. To make the dish as tasty as possible, we advise you to use chilled rather than frozen fish.
