Steps:
- Using a fork, squash the egg thoroughly until uniform in texture and colour.
- Add sandwich tuna.
- If using tuna in water, add olive oil; if using tuna in oil, leave it out.
- It's possible to use chunk tuna instead, you just have to put more effort into squashing it well.
- Add the chopped onion, mix and squash a bit with the fork-- I find this releases the juice from the onion and adds flavour without giving it that'onion-y' taste.
- Add mayonnaise and mix well.
- Serve in a small bowl and garnish with parsley as desired.
- Also works well on crackers or as a spread.
- Keeps in the refrigerator for at least a week-- I haven't tried longer than this because it always gets eaten!

Steps:
- 1. In a medium sized bowl, blend all together, well. Place in refrigerator to chill, for a few hours. Note: (Minced red pepper is very good in this spread, for a more festive look.)
- 2. This won't be a real stiff spread. What I do is lay out a piece of waxed paper and sprinkle some parsley where I'm going to be placing the spread. I scoop the spread out onto the waxed paper and use my hands to shape it. Sprinkling with parsley first makes it so easy. Once shaped as you desire, I then cut the excess waxed paper away, as close to the edges of the spread as possible. Place on serving plate and surround with your favorite crackers or party bread.
- 3. Tasty!

Tips
- Use a variety of tuna. Canned tuna comes in a variety of forms, including albacore, yellowfin, skipjack, and tongol. Each type of tuna has a slightly different flavor and texture, so experiment to find the one you like best.
- Choose the right mayonnaise. Mayonnaise is the key ingredient in tuna spread, so it's important to choose a good one. Look for mayonnaise that is made with high-quality ingredients and has a rich, creamy flavor.
- Add some acid. A little bit of acidity can help to brighten up the flavor of tuna spread. Try adding a squeeze of lemon juice, lime juice, or white vinegar.
- Season the spread to taste. Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for tuna spread, but you can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Chill the spread before serving. This will help to firm it up and make it easier to spread.
