Tuna Salad

This is a a modification of a recipe I found on the internet somewhere,  Very easy to make and satisfactory for a covered dish summertime presentation.  While we love the jalapeño peppers, they can be left out for the faint at heart.

Recipe

bullet4 cups of shredded lettuce
bullet2 cups chopped cucumber
bullet2 cups chopped tomato
bullet1 Vandalia onion, chopped coarse
bullet2 - 12 ounce cans of tuna (the large cans), drain liquid
bulletSeveral sliced pickled jalapeño peppers
bullet1 package of frozen green peas
bullet1 can sliced water chestnuts, drained
bullet1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
bullet2 boiled eggs sliced
bullet1 1/2 cups mayonnaise.
bulletground pepper and paprika

In a very large glass bowl, layer shredded lettuce, cucumber, tomato, tuna, jalapeño peppers,  peas, water chestnuts, and cheese. Seal the top with the mayonnaise. Place sliced eggs on mayonnaise, and garnish with ground pepper and paprika. Cover and refrigerate several hours or over night.
