Tips:
- Use high-quality tuna: Opt for tuna that is packed in water or olive oil and avoid tuna packed in vegetable oil, which can be high in unhealthy fats.
- Choose the right bread: A sturdy bread, such as sourdough or rye, will hold up well to the tuna salad.
- Add your favorite mix-ins: Get creative and add your favorite ingredients to the tuna salad, such as diced celery, chopped red onion, or crumbled hard-boiled eggs.
- Use a light hand with the mayonnaise: Too much mayonnaise can make the tuna salad heavy and greasy. Use just enough to bind the ingredients together.
- Season to taste: Be sure to season the tuna salad with salt and pepper to taste.
- Chill the tuna salad before serving: Chilling the tuna salad for at least 30 minutes before serving will help the flavors to meld and will make the salad easier to spread.
