Can this recipe be processed (canning) in order to use as gifts and eliminate refrigeration?

@lolaandmike, I see where the confusion was. I've updated this to include the proper cooking instructions. I hope this helps. Thanks!

Okay, I am still confused. When do you add the tuna and the other 7 ingredients that follows. Is it while you are still cooking the green pepper mixture or do you add it after it cooks for 5 minutes? If after, do you wait until is cools before you add it or while it is still hot? I would like to make this but do not want to waste the ingredients either. Thank you for any help you can give me with this recipe.

Sorry for the confusion on this recipe everybody. I've updated it to be more clear. This was a reader submitted recipe. We appreciate the feedback!

All the ingredients sound promising, but the instructions sort of fizzle out. There is no explanation for what to do with the tuna, lemon juice, or ketchup. I could guess, but it would be much better if someone proofread their recipe for clarity before submission.

Excelente receta, deliciosa!!! Muchas gracias Besos.

This sounds good, but the recipe is lacking complete instruction on how to make it.
