Equipment

  4. Season with salt, pepper, and optional lemon juice.
  5. Gently fold ingredients until evenly mixed, keeping some chunks of tuna for texture.

  7. Serve as a sandwich filling, on a bed of greens, in wraps, or with crackers.

Notes

  • Storage: Keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3–4 days. Do not freeze.
  • Variations: Add avocado, sriracha, jalapeños, diced apples, or nuts for a unique twist.
  • Tips: Drain tuna well, chop vegetables finely, and taste-test for seasoning adjustments.
