This is my Mom's recipe for tuna salad which happens to contain no mayonnaise. Being Catholic, we had it every Friday night for dinner. Serve on bread or lettuce.

NO-MAYO TUNA SALAD SANDWICH

I came up with this recipe while experimenting with different ingredients in tuna salad. It is pretty low-fat for the most part, and healthy. I say that it's low fat for the most part because you can use regular ingredients, or low-fat-whatever suits your tastes. I just like it because it has no mayo-I dislike it very much.

Time 10m

Yield 2-4 Sandwiches, 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (5 ounce) cans tuna
1 teaspoon mustard
1 tablespoon sour cream (regular or low-fat)
1 dash salt
1 dash pepper
1 dash cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon pickle relish
1 leaf lettuce
1 slice tomatoes

Steps:

  • You can add different amounts of sour cream and mustard to adjust for however moist you like it, and the flavor. I would start out with the amounts above, and go from there.
  • Empty the tuna into a bowl for mixing.
  • Add the sour cream and mustard.
  • Adjust the amounts for your taste. Add more mustard for zest, more sour cream for moisture.
  • Add the salt and pepper, and relish and cayenne if you wish.
  • Put lettuce, tomatoes, etc. to your liking.
  • Once you have it just right, toss it on your bread of choice, and throw some potato chips on the side. :). This is also good on crackers for parties!
