SOUTHERN APPLE TUNA SALAD
I grew up eating a similar tuna salad, I have since adjusted it to be a little healthier than before. The apples make it fresh and delicious! Serve on bread of your choice with lettuce. Yum!

APPLE TUNA SANDWICHES
My husband and his buddies love to pack this tasty lunch when they go on fishing trips. My tangy tuna sandwich recipe gets fun flavor from sweet pickle relish and lots of crunch from apples, celery and walnuts. Each satisfying sandwich is a complete meal in itself. -Ivy Eresmas, Dade City, Florida

APPLE PECAN TUNA SALAD
I grew up eating tuna salad made with sour pickles, onions, and mayonnaise. When I married, my m-in-law made a delicious tuna salad with apples as one of the main ingredients. I LOVED it and began to use that recipe. My husband likes pecans (Texas' state nut) in everything, so I always add a handful, but they are optional. It's better to begin with the chopped apple so you can sprinkle lemon juice over the pieces to keep them from turning brown. I also prefer unpeeled apples. I am saying this makes 6 servings because we like THIN sandwiches. I also sometimes make my sandwich ingredients the night before because allowing to set a while makes the flavors blend.

Steps:
- Chop unpeeled Granny Smith (or any tart, crunchy apple -- Fuji and Gala are also good).
- Sprinkle lemon juice (fresh or bottled) over apples and toss to coat evenly.
- Add drained tuna fish and flake, mixing with apples.
- Add celery, onion, and mayonnaise. Amount of mayonnaise may be adjusted according to texture preference. More crumbly (less mayonnaise) is better to eat with a fork on a lettuce leaf. More "pastey" texture is better for sandwiches.
- Taste, and add a pinch of sugar and salt if needed. (Some apples require a tiny bit of sugar).
