THE BEST TUNA SALAD



The Best Tuna Salad image

While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.

  • Use fresh ingredients. The fresher your ingredients, the tastier your tuna salad bruschetta will be. Look for ripe tomatoes, crisp celery, and fresh herbs.
  • Don't overmix the tuna salad. Overmixing can make the salad mushy. Gently fold the ingredients together until just combined.
  • Use a variety of toppings. In addition to the classic tuna salad ingredients, you can also add other toppings to your bruschetta, such as sliced avocado, hard-boiled eggs, or chopped nuts.
  • Serve immediately. Tuna salad bruschetta is best served immediately after it's made. The bread will become soggy if it sits for too long.
