Tuna Salad

My take on the classic tuna salad. An all-time favorite

Tuna salad has been a quick and easy comfort food for me for a long time. The addition of apples gives it a fresh and crisp flavor.

Ingredients

• 1 can tuna in water
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 honeycrisp apple, cored and julienned (can use a mandolin)
• 1/2 cup vegetables, finely chopped
  • carrots
  • celery
  • bell peppers
  • can use whatever is on hand
• 6 oz. mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp. deli mustard
• 1 tbsp. sweet pickle relish
• 1 hard boiled egg, finely chopped (optional)
• seasonings
  • salt & pepper
  • garlic

Equipment

• medium bowl
• julienne mandolin slicer (optional)
• cutting board & knife

Setup

none

Process

1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir. Season to taste.
2. Serve on a bun or bread. I like to add a pickle.

Notes

• 2016-12-10 - Yummy as always! I used a finer julienne on the apple this time and it released a bit more juice than I’d like. Probably will stick to the slightly larger size.
