FinanceTuna Salad Recipe
I eat tuna about twice a week. It is a great source of protein and omega-3. When buying canned tuna I always purchase the Albacore variety because the taste and quality is considerably better than chunk light tuna.
I make some variation of this recipe every weekend. I find that this salad is very versatile and works well alone, on sandwiches, tuna melts, or mixed with some pasta. Here is the recipe:
- 1 can Albacore tuna
- 3 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 Tbsp dill pickle relish
- 1 tsp. balsamic vinegar
- 1 diced celery stalk
- 1/4 cup crushed wasabi peas
- 1 hardboiled egg
Directions: Drain tuna. Put drained tuna in a large bowl and break up with a fork (Albacore tuna comes in large chunks that need to be broken down). Combine the remaining ingredients in a large bowl and mix.
Be advised the wasabi peas add a little kick to this recipe. Crushed almonds are a nice replacement for the wasabi peas if you aren’t so inclined.
