Description

My tuna salad recipe is simple and delicious, the addition of hard boiled eggs adds that little something extra. Perfect for tuna sandwiches, lettuce wraps, a topping for crackers or top salad greens with a scoop.

Ingredients

12 oz can of your favorite style tuna (Solid white/Solid Light or Chunk Light) drained. (You could substitute with 12 oz of salmon or chicken) ⅓ cup fine diced red onion (about half a medium sized onion) ⅓ cup fine diced celery (about 2-3 stalks) ¼ cup fine diced sweet or dill gherkin pickles (about 2-3 pickles) 3 hard boil eggs ½ cup mayo ¼ teaspoon Pepper & Lemon seasoning (optional) Salt & pepper to taste (for these measurements I use ½ teaspoon Kosher salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper)

Instructions

Drain tuna and set aside. In a large bowl add the hard boiled eggs and mash until deserted consistency. Add tuna to the bowl and flake tuna to desired consistency. Add onions/celery/pickles/salt & pepper/pepper & lemon seasoning and mix to distribute evenly. Add mayo and mix to combine well.

Serves

6 - 8

Additional Comments

Serve over salad greens, make lettuce wraps or as my favorite between 2 slices of a hearty whgite bread. Substitute the tuna for canned salmon for a great salmon salad or roasted chicken for a great chicken salad.
