Categories Fish No-Cook Quick & Easy

Yield 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 cans of Tuna Fillet,
packed in water
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 tablespoon dill weed
1 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/4-1/2 cup mustard
1/4 balsamic vinegar
1 rib celery, chopped
2-3 teaspoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

Place everything in a medium sized bowl and stir it up just until well mixed. You'll want to keep the tuna still chunky. Add more of anything to suit your own tastes. Measurements are approximate. I like to serve this in toasted mini wheat pitas or on top of whole wheat pasta.

Tips:

Choose high-quality canned tuna for the best flavor and texture.
Flake the tuna with a fork for a lighter, fluffier salad.
Use a variety of mayonnaise-free ingredients to add flavor and texture, such as Greek yogurt, avocado, hummus, or tahini.
Add some chopped vegetables for a healthy and colorful twist.
Season the salad to taste with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices.
Serve the salad immediately or chill it for a few hours for a more flavorful experience.

Conclusion:

Mayo-free tuna salad is a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional tuna salad. With a variety of ingredients and flavors to choose from, you can easily create a salad that suits your taste. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy lunch or a healthy side dish, mayo-free tuna salad is a great option. So next time you're in the mood for tuna salad, give this mayonnaise-free version a try. You won't be disappointed!
