Classic Tuna Salad Recipe Your Mom Used to Make

Tuna Salad sandwiches bring back childhood memories of mom whipping up a bowl and scooping spoonfuls onto our toast or croissant. It was quick, easy, healthy, and delicious.

There are lots of ways to prepare tuna salad but I always go back to what I know to be the best – the CLASSIC Tuna Salad Recipe!

I’ve seen recipes using all kinds of ingredients, from curry to relish. I’m sure they’re tasty but sometimes I just like the memory of the classic tuna salad.

Here’s how my mom used to prepare our weekend lunch favorite.

Tuna Salad

2 cans solid white albacore tuna

1/3 c mayonnaise

1/3 c red onion, diced

1/3 c celery, diced

2 hard boiled egg whites, diced

1 tsp dried dill

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

Directions:

First, drain the tuna with a tuna press or by using the opened lid to press against the fish. Next, empty the tuna into a large bowl and combine the rest of the ingredients.

Add more mayonnaise for a wetter consistency. Serve right away or let chill for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator for a more developed flavor.

Serve over lettuce leaves, or with crackers, toast, croissant. A special treat was when mom would open a baguette loaf, spread the tuna salad onto the open faced bread, top with shredded sharp cheddar cheese, and broil for about 1 minute or until the cheese was bubbly.

Enjoy!
