Notes

Serving Suggestions
  • Portion the salad with eggs and tuna into two bowls and garnish with fresh dill.
  • Enjoy this tuna salad recipe as a sandwich stuffer using whole wheat sandwich bread with Dijon mustard and relish. Try Boston Bibb or sturdy romaine lettuce leaves for a lettuce wrap to keep it low-carb.
  • Scoop it onto crackers or cut up bell peppers and cucumber slices. <-- my fave!
