Instructions
Cut a small square around the stem of the pepper (2 whole) to cleanly remove it without cutting too much of the pepper
Cut the peppers in half, remove the seeds, cut out any white pieces, and set aside
Prepare the celery (2 ribs) and onion (1 medium)
Strain the tuna cans (4 cans) and add into a large bowl
Add the onion, celery, mayonnaise (⅓ cup), mustard (2 Tbsp), salt (½ tsp), pepper (½ tsp), and red chili flakes (¼); mix well
Use a spoon to scoop tuna mixture into each bell pepper half, dividing the tuna equally amongst them all
Enjoy!
