My 2 girl friends and I started a diet club called "The Bikini Chicks " and I was looking for a way to incorporate naturally low-fat high protein tuna into our diet several days a week in a way that would be fun and easy to prepare. It also had to taste good or I knew we wouldn't stick with it. One of the girls has a Hispanic background and gave me the original idea of the tuna burrito. Later I expanded the recipe to include tostadas and tacos. And with her help taste testing of course I developed the Fiesta Tuna Taco Recipe for the Save-a Lot Fuel Your Family Contest. It makes a great family meal that is nutritious and delicious. So good you think you are eating out. According to my friend "It has an authentic Mexican taste " and it's a snap to prepare. We love it! "
