RICH TUNA SALAD, EVEN FOR THE TUNA HATERS :)

Rich Tuna Salad, Even for the Tuna Haters :) image

Years ago I kept craving tuna. Strange, because I am really not a tuna lover. Eventually I came across Bumble Bee albacore tuna (DOLPHIN SAFE, very important to me) packed in water. I bought 2 cans. I used a few normal ingredients and one or two not so mainstream ingredients. It's delicious, almost tastes "roasted" for lack of a better description :) I developed this, but I'm sure others have used something similar. It really satisfied my craving for tuna (must have been my body craving protein and omega 3 fatty acids) I just thought I'd share! Oh, also! The tuna mellows and tastes much better if allowed to sit in the fridge for several hours. Also good on crackers!

Time 15m

Yield 3-4 sandwiches, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 (6 ounce) cans bumble bee albacore tuna in water (other brands may be substituted, but I prefer Bumble Bee)
1 cup Best Foods Mayonnaise (again, a personal preference)
2 (4 1/4 ounce) cans of chopped black olives
1 small red onion
2 medium dill pickles
1 teaspoon fresh dill
1 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
1/4 teaspoon dried mustard

Steps:

Drain tuna, trying to get as much juice out as you can.
Feed the juice to your kitties :).
Place in a medium bowl.
Dice the red onion finely.
Dice the dill pickle finely.
Mix the above ingredients with the mayonnaise and mix as finely as possible.
Add the chopped olives, lemon pepper, fresh dill and dried mustard, mix well.
Serve on freshly baked Sourdough bread. Add lettuce and tomato, if desired.
For a low carb version, omit bread and dollop on a nice bed of lettuce (free food!) :).
