Description

Back in the 1970s, a girlfriend of mine and I would make big bowls of this tuna salad and just eat it with a fork. I’ve been making this loaded tuna salad ever since. Eat as a meal, or use for appetizers. Suitable for Atkins, Keto, LCHF, low carb, diabetic, low glycemic, gluten free, grain free, nut free, coconut free, CKD, Low Potassium, Low Sodium, Renal Diet.

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces, weight Canned All White Tuna In Water, Well Drained
  • 2 Tablespoons Mt. No Sugar Added Olive Sweet Relish, Well Drained
  • 2  Hard Boiled Eggs, Large, Grated
  • 2 stalks Medium Celery Stalks, Thin Sliced
  • ½ cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
  • ¼ cups Parsley, Chopped
  • ½ cups Hellman's/Best Foods Real Mayonnaise (Or To Taste)
  • 1 teaspoon Yellow Mustard (optional)

Preparation

Drain tuna and break it up with your fingers or a fork in a medium mixing bowl. Add well-drained pickle relish and remaining ingredients.

Mix everything with a fork until well blended. Taste test to see if you want to add any more relish or mayonnaise. Store covered in refrigerator.

Makes about 3 cups salad, serving size approximately 1/2 cup.

Serving suggestions:
1. As a meal, serve on low carb bun or toast, stuffed avocado, stuffed tomato, lettuce cups, or a bed of mixed greens.
2. As an appetizer, serve on low carb crackers, or stuffed celery bites.
