Description

This light and healthy tuna salad is great for a sandwich, top it on a cracker or a bell pepper slice, wrap it in a tortilla, or wrap it in a lettuce leaf.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Hard Boiled Eggs
  • 2 cans (5 Oz. Size) Albacore Tuna (WildPlanet)
  • 1 cup Yellow Onion, Chopped
  • ¾ cups Celery, Chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice (or 1/2 Teaspoon Lemon Pepper)
  • 2 Tablespoons Fresh Parsley (or 1 Tablespoon Dried)
  • 5 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
  • ½ teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Black Pepper

Preparation

Chop hard boiled eggs in a large bowl. If using WildPlanet brand tuna, drain one can of tuna, but not the other. WildPlanet tuna is not packed in water or oil, the liquid is just part of the fish. If you’re using some other brand packed in oil or water, drain both cans and do not use any of the liquid. Don’t panic, it will still taste fine without it.

Break up the tuna and add it along with all the other ingredients and stir until mixed. Do not stir until it’s mush. It should be somewhat chunky and not goopy.

I like this on a croissant. Or place some on a piece of multi-grain bread, top it with a slice of your favorite cheese and toast it and another piece of bread open faced in a toaster oven. Assemble and rejoice in the pleasure of the best tuna sandwich you’ve ever eaten. Other options are to put it onto your favorite buttery cracker for a light snack or wrap it in a tortilla or lettuce leaf.
