MY MOTHER'S TUNA SALAD
This is Julia Reed's favorite tuna salad, the one she subsisted on for years as a child, eaten with a fork straight out of a container in her mother's refrigerator. It's an unfussy thing that is exactly suited to be layered between two pieces of white bread - toasted, if you must - and then eaten at the kitchen table, or, after summer ends, at the lunchroom table. The ingredients are simple and easily acquired, and be sure to use real mayonnaise.

Steps:
- Drain the tuna, place it in a bowl and break it up with a fork. Add 1/4 cup of mayonnaise and blend well. Mix in the remaining ingredients, and add the rest of the mayonnaise. Check for celery salt, Season-All, salt and pepper. This is better if it sits at least one hour before serving.

[email protected]This tuna salad was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needed more salt and pepper, and maybe some chopped celery or onion for some added flavor. Otherwise, it was a good recipe and easy to make.
