tuna + ??? = tuna salad

[lightpants]

What do you mix with tuna to make good tuna salad? I usually use mayo and a little salt and pepper, but I was wondering if anyone in the atot community had any suggestions for something new to try.

Let's hear them!

I like mixing mayo, sweet pickles, and maybe some celery or onion.

edit: Sometimes, I like to add tabasco for a change of pace

 

[silverpig]

Wasabi mayonnaise, freshly ground pepper. Serve with fresh tomatoes, red leaf lettuce and red onion slices on multigrain bread.

Alternatively try:
½ cup plain mayo
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
2 Tbsp. thinly sliced green onion
1 medium tomato, seeded and diced
1 Tbsp. chopped fresh mint or 2 tsp.
dried mint, crushed
1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 can water packed tuna, drained
diced zucchini or cucumber or shredded carrot (just a bit)

Depending on how you like it, you might consider using the habanero tabasco because it's sweeter. That's what I had been using.

Salad, duh. 😀

 

[Krakerjak]

celery, mayo, and DILL (the secret ingredient, not too much though). Makes for awesome tuna salad/.

 

[Peter D]

celery, onions, a little bit of olive oil, and a few olives 😀

[Kadarin]

Mayo, a bit of mustard, chopped up pickles.. scoop it onto a salad (with italian or ranch dressing). Yum.

 

[Spoooon]

Bastard. I guess I need to make the trip and pick up some tuna and what not. The only thing I can think of right now is having a tuna salad sandwich.

Chives

 

[bolomite]

don't forget hard-boiled egg

 

[wfbberzerker]

salad?

 

[bradruth]

Mayo, mustard, salt, pepper, & tuna. It's pretty basic, but you could throw some spices in there to spruce it up.

 

[loup garou]

mayo, dijon mustard, pepper, sweet pickles, red onion, celery.

 

[Pepsei]

use sweet relish, albacore tuna, and hellman's mayo.

 

[ElFenix]

capers, dill relish, hard boiled egg, a little mayo, some brown mustard

 

[Squisher]

I have a light tuna salad just about every day for lunch.

Along with a small can of tuna I chop up mushroom, celery, green pepper, onion and add horse-radish mustard, cayenne pepper, and the juice from 1/2 a lemon.

The wife said I should have protein at every meal so I started making this for lunch and subtracted a fruit.

My recipe is:

1 part Miracle Whip
2 parts drained canned tuna
1/3 part chopped celery
1/6 part diced onion
1/6 part sweet relish

I use miracle whip instead of mayo.. it seems to sit and hold together better, and the "light" version (hah hah!) tastes a little better than light mayo.
