This Fusilli Tuna Salad is light and tangy, and it has just enough flavor to bring smiles of joy to everyone's face. We start with some fusilli and dress it up with flaky tuna, briny black olives, and sweet cherry tomatoes, and then lightly toss it in a bright lemon juice dressing. The best part is that it comes together in no time – just 15 minutes, to be exact! What better way is there to make sure your summer parties are the talk of the town?
