My favorite tuna salad recipe, with lots of flavor. Makes 4 servings.
Prep Time:10 minutesmins
Chill Time:10 minutesmins
Total Time:20 minutesmins
Equipment
Mixing bowl (medium or large)
Spoon or spatula
Ingredients
2canstuna (drained, 7 ounces each) White Albacore is best
2-3tablespoonsDijon mustard(adjust to taste)
3tablespoonsdill relish
¾cupmayonnaise(Hellman's or Best)
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Prepare the dressing. Combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and dill relish in a large mixing bowl. Stir until well blended. You can adjust the amount of mayonnaise depending on your preference for a creamier or lighter salad.
Add the tuna. Gently fold in the drained tuna, flaking it with a fork as you go. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to your liking.
Chill and serve. For the best flavor, refrigerate the tuna salad for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to combine. Serve as a sandwich, over a fresh green salad, or with crackers.
Notes
This is great for meal prep and can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days!Choose solid white albacore tuna if possible—it’s firmer and tastes milder than the chunk light variety.
