TUNA SALAD (BETTY CROCKER?)



Tuna Salad (Betty Crocker?) image

This is the tuna salad recipe I've had on a post-it note for ages.I think it came from a BC cookbook. I did a cursory search and couldn't find one with these ingredients. I make 4-6x the recipe as an appetizer, and we occasionally have leftovers for a sandwich or two the next day. I chop my veggies very finely so that it works as a salad and as a sandwich builder. Also, when I double (or more) the recipe, I use half tuna in water and half tuna in oil for more flavor.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 ounces tuna
1/2 cup celery, finely diced
1/2 cup scallion, finely diced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
2 eggs, hard boiled, finely diced
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish or 2 tablespoons bell peppers, finely diced

Steps:

  • Combine the first 5 ingredients.
  • Add eggs.
  • (a quick way to chop - use an egg slicer 3 times: after the first time, rotate the egg horizontally, like the hand of a clock, after the second, rotate around its axis, like turning a door knob).
  • Add enough mayo for a barely - moist salad (the veggies and tuna will give off liquid, so add a little less than you think you'll need).
  • Add relish/bell pepper.
  • Add salt to taste.
  • Refrigerate several hours for flavors to meld.

THE BEST TUNA SALAD



The Best Tuna Salad image

While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.
