Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium bowl, gently flake the water-packed and olive oil-packed tuna with a fork, ensuring any excess liquid is removed. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add the mayonnaise, chopped celery, and red onion to the bowl. (1 minute)

03

Step

Squeeze the juice from half a lime over the mixture, then incorporate the Dijon mustard. (1 minute)

04

Step

Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, adjusting to your preference. (1 minute)

05

Step

Gently fold all the ingredients together until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain the texture of the tuna and vegetables. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. For optimal flavor, chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. (30 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of chopped fresh herbs like dill, parsley, or chives.
If you prefer a creamier consistency, increase the amount of mayonnaise, adding one tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired texture.
To add some heat, incorporate a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce.
For a crunchier salad, add 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans.
This salad can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
