2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley, plus extra for garnish
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves)

Categories     Spreads

Time 5m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (6 1/2 ounce) can tuna in vegetable oil
1/3 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon minced onion

Steps:

  • DRAIN TUNA. Combine tuna, celery and onion.
  • Blend together mayonnaise, lemon juice,.
  • and worcestershire sauce; add to tuna mixture.
  • Toss lightly.
  • Yield: 16 canapes.
  • I just made this because of the concern that it was too "liquidy" according to the reviewer, and it was perfect. I just added "drain well", because my only conclusion is that she didn't drain it. I just used water packed, and i think the "oil" probably gives it a bit more flavor. I would also suggest letting it set for a few hours so the flavors meld.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons salsa
2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon dried minced onion
1 can (6 ounces) tuna, drained and flaked

Steps:

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Choose quality tuna. Opt for tuna that is canned in water or olive oil and avoid those packed in oil for a healthier option.
  • Drain the tuna well. This will help to remove excess moisture and prevent the spread from becoming too watery.
  • Use mayonnaise or Greek yogurt. Mayonnaise is the traditional ingredient used to bind tuna salad together, but Greek yogurt can be a healthier alternative.
  • Add flavorings. Feel free to experiment with different flavorings to create a spread that suits your taste. Some popular options include lemon juice, Dijon mustard, chopped celery, and capers.
  • Chill before serving. This will help the spread to firm up and make it easier to spread.

Conclusion:

Tuna canapé spread is a versatile and delicious appetizer that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. It can be served on crackers, bread, or vegetables, or used as a filling for sandwiches or wraps. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, tuna canapé spread is a perfect dish for entertaining or for a quick and easy snack.
