Tuna Salad image

This is my own version of my family's recipe. I grew up watching Mom make this, and the old rule of thumb was two of everything. That's changed a little over time with the addition of many new ingredients. It truly is a family recipe since each person has contributed changes.

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 cans tuna (used to be two, but I added so many veggies, the tuna property was getting lost!)
2 hard-boiled eggs
2 stalks celery
1/2 bell pepper
1 carrot, shredded
2 -3 sweet gherkins, depending on size
3 -5 pickled peppers, like pepperoncini or banana peppers
slivered almonds
1/4 cup cilantro
2 -3 green onions
1 -2 teaspoon mustard, preferably spicy
1 tablespoon mayonnaise, for flavor if you like mayo
pickle juice
plain yogurt, enough to get the creaminess you desire
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Dice all the veggies and the eggs.
  • Mix everything together in a bowl.
  • Make it cold.
  • Put it on a sandwich or eat with a fork.
  • Your choice.
  • It doesn't get much simpler than this.
