First, we need to cook the bell peppers. I chose to use the air fryer, but if you don’t have one, you can easily bake them in the oven. Cook them at 356°F for about 30 minutes, turning them after about 20 minutes. Once cooked, let them cool in the air fryer or oven (this way they are easier to clean). Once cold, we clean them
remove the seeds as well, and then cut them into strips. Add the drained tuna, olives, oregano, salt, garlic,
Add vinegar and oil. Mix well. Refrigerate for a few hours.
Enjoy your meal!
