Tuna Salad

Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

1. Open the cans of tuna, drain thoroughly, and transfer the tuna to a mixing bowl.
2. Use a fork to break up any large chunks.

Step 2: Combine Ingredients

1. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, celery, red onion, parsley, and lemon juice to the tuna.
2. Mix everything together until well combined, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 3: Serve

1. Serve immediately on bread, in a wrap, over greens, or in a lettuce cup. You can also refrigerate the salad for 30 minutes to let the flavors meld for an even tastier result.

Tips and Variations

• Make it Healthier: Use Greek yogurt or a mix of Greek yogurt and mayo for a lighter option.
• Add Crunch: Try adding diced pickles, cucumbers, or bell peppers for extra crunch.
• Spice it Up: A pinch of paprika, cayenne pepper, or a dash of hot sauce adds a nice kick.
• Avocado Lovers: Substitute some of the mayonnaise with mashed avocado for extra creaminess.

Storage

Store leftover tuna salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Give it a stir before serving, as the ingredients can settle over time.
