Completely Different Tuna & Egg Salad (No Mayo) image

Not your usual tuna or egg salad, this can be enjoyed as is, in a sandwich, on top of greens, or any other way that sounds good to you. If you want to add a touch of mayo for creaminess, go ahead- but it's plenty good without! You can change up the ingredients to suit what you have on hand, or what you like- chopped pickles instead of capers, oil packed tuna instead of water packed, different herbs, shallot instead of green onion... This is just how I first made it based on what was in my kitchen.

I'm not a big fan of tuna salad, but I really enjoyed this recipe. It's so different from the traditional tuna salad that I'm used to. The lemon juice and Dijon mustard give it a really nice flavor.

I was skeptical at first, but this salad is actually really good! The lemon juice and Dijon mustard give it a nice tangy flavor. I also love the addition of the celery and onion.
