DILLED TUNA-CUCUMBER SALAD
Steps:
- Combine all ingredients in small bowl. Mix well. Season generously with pepper. Serve salad chilled.
Tips:
- Use high-quality canned tuna for the best flavor. Look for tuna that is packed in olive oil or water, rather than brine.
- Choose a mayonnaise that you enjoy the taste of. There are many different brands and varieties of mayonnaise available, so experiment until you find one that you like.
- Fresh herbs, such as dill, parsley, and chives, add a lot of flavor to tuna salad. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less, as they are more concentrated.
- Add some crunchy vegetables, such as celery, onion, and cucumber, to give the tuna salad some texture. You can also add chopped hard-boiled eggs or avocado for extra protein and healthy fats.
- Season the tuna salad to taste with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper or paprika for a little bit of heat.
- Serve the tuna salad on top of a bed of lettuce or arugula, or use it as a filling for sandwiches or wraps.
