TASTY TUNA TATER SALAD



Tasty Tuna Tater Salad image

This is definitely not your traditional potato salad recipe, but it's delicious! By adding the Italian and ranch dressing to the warm potatoes, the potatoes really soak up a ton of flavor. Adding lemon to the tuna does really help take away some of the "fishy" taste. I really love the crunch you get from the veggies. This salad...

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 can(s) ( 5 ounce can) solid white albacore tuna (mom used flaked tuna - i like albacore), drained
3 c (about 2 large) potatoes cubed, and cooked until fork tender, drain and put in a large bowl.
2 boiled eggs, chopped
1/2 c onion, chopped (approximately 1 small onion)
1/2 c celery, minced (2 stalks)
1/2 c carrot coarsely minced (1 small carrot)
1/2 c red bell pepper, chopped (about 1/4 bell pepper)
3 Tbsp sweet relish (i use mt. olive sweet relish; of course mom made her own.)
1/2 c lite buttermilk ranch dressing (put on drained potatoes while still hot - absorbs flavor better)
1 Tbsp yellow mustard
2 Tbsp creamy lite italian dressing (i use olive garden lite italian dressing -it isn't real strong)
salt and pepper, to taste.
optional garnishes (makes it tasty, crunchy and pretty)**

Steps:

  • 1. Place drained, cooked and cubed potatoes in a large bowl.
  • 2. Put drained tuna in a small bowl with the 2 teaspoons of lemon juice; stir well and set aside while you add other ingredients to the potatoes. Adding lemon juice helps to get rid of the fishy taste of the tuna.
  • 3. Add the sweet relish, mustard, ranch and Italian dressings to potatoes while they are hot. Gently stir to coat the potatoes. Be careful, as they break up if handled roughly while hot.
  • 4. Add the tuna and boiled eggs to the potato mixture. Stir in the chopped and minced veggies -onion, celery, carrot and red bell pepper. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • 5. Mix well. Can serve at room temperature or cold. It is even better the next day or two, as the flavors meld in the refrigerator.
  • 6. Serve on a bed of lettuce with or without the optional garnishes. Enjoy!!
  • 7. ***Optional Garnishes • A sprinkling of shredded Cheddar Cheese • Tri-color tortilla strips placed on top • A couple of Capelle Tomatoes, cut in half and placed on the side of the plate (since tomatoes aren't in season; these seem to have better, fresher taste than some you buy in the stores)

EASY (AND TASTY) TUNA SALAD FOR ONE



Easy (And Tasty) Tuna Salad for One image

I made this up all by myself. My mom and I are big tuna eaters. I eat tuna everyday and I find this to be the EASIEST and TASTIEST way I can possibly make my tuna salad for my lunch everyday. It's very quick and takes me about 5 minutes, it's also low fat and good for you. My mom tells me all the time that she loves it. I enjoy it as well, I eat this tuna salad nearly every day for lunch at school. I eat it with crackers, on bread or plain with some fruit, the Mrs. Dash gives it a great flavor, I always keep Mrs. Dash on hand. I hope you like it. It's a recipe concocted by a 15 year old chef. lol.

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (3 ounce) can albacore tuna, drained (I prefer Starkist Albacore Tuna, in the single serving cans)
1 tablespoon light mayonnaise (or fat free)
1 teaspoon honey mustard (use a little more if tuna salad is too dry, I use a teaspoonful)
1/2 teaspoon Mrs. Dash seasoning mix
1 baby carrots, chopped (optional)
sweet relish (optional)

Steps:

  • Drain your tuna well.
  • Scoop into a bowl with a fork and flake it well with your fork, breaking up the larger chunks of tuna.
  • Add remaining ingredients and enjoy.
  • Whenever I'm in a hurry I just use the mayonnaise, honey mustard and Mrs. Dash.
  • When I have time I add the carrot which gives it a nice crunch.
  • Eat it on 2 slices of whole wheat bread, with tortilla chips, or with crackers.
  • Sometimes I just eat it plain it tastes just fine that way.

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.
