Apple Tuna Sandwiches image

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

TUNA SALAD SANDWICH WITH APPLES AND WALNUTS



Tuna Salad Sandwich with Apples and Walnuts image

This dish can be served as a sandwich filling or as a stand-alone salad accompanied by favorite lettuces and veggies. We use canned tuna packed in spring water because it's lighter than tuna packed in oil, and we make sure the apple is tart and crisp. Granny Smith apples are fine, but also Mutsu, Honeycrisp, or any good local crispy, tart apple will do. Add half the dressing at first and see if you need more-it's up to you how well coated you want the tuna and apples to be.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup chopped walnuts
3/4 cup mayonnaise, homemade (page 284) or store-bought
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 crisp, tart apples, such as Granny Smith, Mutsu or Honeycrisp, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/8-inch cubes
3 small cans (about 18 ounces total) canned tuna in spring water, drained and separated into chunks
6 tablespoons finely diced red onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
8 slices multi-grain bread

Steps:

  • Toast the walnuts in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes, or until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Alternatively, roast the walnuts in a preheated 300°F oven for 10 minutes, or until they smell toasted. Remove the walnuts to a plate and set aside to cool.
  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, sugar, and cider vinegar in a small bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Combine the walnuts, apples, tuna, red onion, and parsley in a bowl. Toss with half the dressing. Add more dressing, if desired.
  • Spread the salad over 4 slices of bread. Top with the other 4 slices. Cut each sandwich in half, and serve.
