Default Tuna Salad

OK I need something new in the way of a tuna salad recipe. I HATE RELISH, so
leave that out. It would be nice to have something with nuts or other
interesting ingredients.

Chunk light tuna
Pomegranate arils
Mayonnaise
Thinly-sliced green onions
Coarsely-chopped walnuts
Salt and black pepper to taste

I have occasionally mixed tuna with drained chopped bottled Italian
"pepper salad" or bottled red roasted peppers. The peppers are oily
enough, even when drained on paper towels, so it doesn;t need any other
dressing except maybe a squeeze of lemon juice and some fresh ground pepper.

Skip the tuna and use salmon.

Something like that is easy to try different ingredients to see what you
like. Mustard, or not. Onions, or not. Mayo, or just a vinaigrette.

Experiment.

Add some liquid smoke to the mix and use it as a spread for crackers.

I add a handful of grated carrot to tuna salad. Doesn't seem to make any
difference to the taste and maybe does sneak in a vitamin. Polly

That would probably work with marinated artichoke hearts, too.

Use your favorite recipe and add a small amount of chopped apple

For me, to the base of tuna and mayo, I'll add small amounts of onion,
celery, horseradish, and mustard. I'll add apple if I have some and
sometimes 1/2 hardboiled egg.

In tuna salad, of course I use hellman's mayonaise. I've never made
my own mayo yet, but then that might be too sexy. Anyway, tuna, mayo,
a tad apple cider vinegar, some chopped walnuts (love that texture),
chopped red bell pepper, chopped celery, and some fruit such as grape
halves seedless.

I always like tuna salad with tart apples, raisins optional but I like
them.

You got me hungry. One of my favorites is tuna salad hoagie. Run through
the turbo oven on nice bun, extra mayo, tomato, onion, cheese. I would take
one on toast right now.

Well, waddle yer fat arse into the kitchen and experiment until you
get what you want. Everyone here is not going to do the work for
you. Grow the **** up. LOL

My sister adores tuna and only Kirkland tuna from COSTCO. Her
clue...don't use relish and instead chop up whole sweet pickles.
Enough to alter the just tuna taste, mix with sea salt and fresh
nicely ground pepper and mayo (best Foods, here). Sit for 12 hours. It
does matter. The crunchy sweet pickles make all the difference.

aloha,
Cea

Both sound like great ideas. Thank you both. It made me think of the
jar of celery salad I've got in the pantry that I'll bet would be good
too.
