SWEET AND SPICY TUNA SALAD

This is a fresh alternative to the tired tuna salad. A unique, yet pleasant mixture of flavors. Also, you can adjust ingredient amounts for a personalized taste. I like it sweet with a bite. You can also use 1 slice of jack or favorite kind of white cheese to melt on top. Use for a sandwich, with wheat or grain crackers for a snack or a twist for hors d'oeuvres at your cocktail party.

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

4 can(s) tuna in water drained
1 celery stick diced
1/4 onion diced
3 Tbsp sweet pickled relish
2 Tbsp fat free mayo
CHIPOTLE MAYO
1 c fat free mayo
1 lime juiced
2 chipotle peppers in a can
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbsp olive oil
TOPPINGS
1 pineapple peeled and sliced
lettuce any kind you like or can find.
bread toasted

Steps:

1. Drain your tuna pretty well. Add mayo and mix. Add chopped onions, relish and celery. Peel your pineapple (it has to be fresh. You can use can but it just wont taste the same). Cut the pineapple into rings and take the core out.
2. In a blender add mayo, lemon juice, chipotle peppers, salt and olive oil blend until well combined. Start toasting your bread (you can use any bread you like).
3. To assemble sandwiches all you do is slather bread with the spicy mayo onto both pieces. Add as much tuna as you like. I like to make mine fat. Add a ring of pineapple on top with some lettuce and top with the other piece of bread. Cut the sandwich in half or quarters what ever you like. These are great party foods or finger foods.

Tips:

For the best flavor, use high-quality canned tuna. Look for tuna that is packed in water or olive oil, and avoid tuna that is packed in oil.
If you are using fresh tuna, cook it until it is just opaque in the center. Overcooked tuna will be dry and tough.
Use a variety of vegetables in your tuna salad. This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors. You can add herbs, spices, or even fruits to your tuna salad.
Serve tuna salad on a bed of lettuce, or use it as a sandwich filling. You can also enjoy it as a dip with crackers or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Tuna salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It is a great source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and vegetables. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy lunch or a hearty and satisfying dinner, tuna salad is a great option.
