Tuna Salad #1 : Like Mom Used to Make image

This is the tuna salad my mom used to make. Simple, comforting, wonderful on soft white bread. The quantities are estimates, since Mom never really measured.

Time 10m

Yield 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (6 ounce) cans tuna in water
4 eggs, hard-boiled
1/4-1/2 cup mayonnaise (I'm partial to Hellman's)
1/4 cup pickle relish
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Coarsely chop the hardboiled eggs and add to a bowl.
  • Flake in the tuna.
  • Add the pickle relish, and stir to combine.
  • Add the mayonnaise a little at a time, tasting as you go, until you get a consistency you like. I like my tuna salad kind of creamy.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • VARIATION:.
  • Use canned salmon in place of the tuna. Make sure to pick out all the pieces of bone and cartilage first.
