Robo's Lo-Cal Tuna, Pineapple, Cottage Cheese, and Basil Salad Recipe

Recipe by: love2cook

"I've been mixing tuna with my cottage cheese at lunch for years and I've also enjoyed pairing fresh basil with pineapple. One day, I put it all together and came up with this recipe. Sometimes, I eat it in a bowl, sometimes with crackers, or bread, but anyway it's eaten, it hits all the high notes and is wonderfully satisfying."
