- 1/2 can peas approx. 7.5 oz
- 3 hard boiled eggs sliced
- 16 saltine crackers crushed
Instructions

Notes
Using canned peas provides a nutty flavor that you cannot get with fresh peas.
I used tuna in oil because that is how the recipe was originally written. You can used canned tuna in water if you prefer. I'm not sure how it will affect the flavor.
