This tuna and cream cheese salad is made special with the addition of cream cheese and chopped raw carrots. Red peppers make it pretty, and one or two other vegetables, fruits, or nuts keep it changing and interesting. I developed this recipe after tasting cream cheese in a salmon salad sandwich at a funeral lunch in Canada many years ago. Add baby spinach or lettuce leaves, and serve on your favorite bread or as a wrap in a tortilla.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 ounces cream cheese , softened, or as needed
- 2 cans solid white tuna packed in water , 5 ounce
- 0.5 carrot , finely chopped
- 0.25 cups diced red bell pepper
- freshly ground black pepper to taste

Sweet Potato Brownies
These sweet potato brownies are light and moist, loaded with chocolate chips, and topped with more chips and pecans. You really won't taste the sweet potato, but it's what gives them their fudgy texture.
Swedish Hard Tack
Hard tack, also called knäckebröd, is biscuit-like, crunchy, and sweet. Very nice with butter or cheese.

I made these for a holiday party, and have been asked to make them over and over again ever since. I've been told they have a good unique flavor to them. Hope you enjoy them as much as my friends and family!
