Last year about this time I was planning a little trip to Hawaii to see a friend. I don’t know about you guys, but planning a vacation is half the fun for me. Okay…maybe a fourth of the fun.
Anyway, this summer, we won’t be visiting Hawaii, which means that in order to capture as much of that feeling as possible, I had to make something fresh and tasty and fish related.
This particular salad not only fits the bill, but gets the win!

I picked up my ahi at Sam’s Club, in the freezer section. Fresh would have been nice, but being land-locked means fewer options!
