A non-mayo alternative for those of you who, like my husband, are not fond of mayonnaise. Do not be deceived, this version, although missing what some would consider a “key ingredient,” is still rich in flavor and delicious! So go ahead and try it, I bet you won’t even miss the mayo.
This recipe is a nod to my friend Ismene. When we were in 3rd grade, and both living in Greece, her family invited me to their summer home for a week. Her mom and sister made a similar type of tuna salad for lunch one day. It was the first time I had ever had a non-mayo version. To my surprise, I actually enjoyed it, and have loved the non-mayo version ever since!
Drain tuna. Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix until combined. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve cold, and enjoy!
Note that you can also add around 1/4 cup of pitted Kalamata olives if you like. I didn’t have any on hand when I whipped this up, but I have had them in here before and they are delish!
This is also great served on top of a nice slice of crusty artisan bread or on top of a bed of greens.
