*Pomegranate arils: this is the technical name for the seeds. If you have fresh pomegranate fruit, and don't mind the process of removing them from the fruit, that's great too. When I don't have much time, I will buy a pack of the 8oz. cups (usually from Costco), so I can easily throw this dish together in 5 minutes. I've used an entire 8oz. cup of arils for this recipe, and that was delicious too. Depends on the ratio of sweet and savory you are craving.
*Tuna: I usually use the Safe Catch brand of tuna (wild yellowfin). Because I eat a lot of tuna, I like the fact that the mercury levels are checked for this specific brand. Any tuna packed in water will taste great though!
