Description

A creamy, crunchy, fresh tuna salad with dill and cucumber ready in 10 minutes. Great for sandwiches, crackers, or lettuce wraps.


Ingredients

Scale

  2 cans tuna, drained (5-ounce cans)

2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped

2 tablespoons mayonnaise, full fat

1 teaspoon dijon mustard

½ Persian cucumber, chopped (about ¼ cup total)

salt and pepper, as needed


Instructions

Combine all of the ingredients EXCEPT the cucumber in a bowl, mixing lightly with a fork.

Taste the tuna salad and add sprinkles of salt and pepper until it is very flavorful.

Right before serving, stir in the diced cucumber.

Serve with crackers, pita, or on sandwiches. Enjoy!

Notes

 This can be made up to three days in advance, but may become watery due to the cucumber. If that happens, just drain the water off the top of the tuna salad, OR add the cucumber right before serving.

Tuna in oil or water works fine for this recipe; use whatever you prefer.

Dried dill may be subbed instead of fresh, use 2 teaspoons dried dill.
