Best Tuna Salad Recipe for Sandwiches

4 Stars
post

The tuna salad in this easy recipe has crunch from the celery and apple, which also delivers a hint of sweetness. We use Greek-style yogurt in place of mayonnaise to bind everything together and to add a tangy, creamy finish. You could take this up a notch and make it a "Waldorf tuna salad" by adding 2 tablespoons toasted chopped walnuts, 3 tablespoons quartered small grapes and 1 tablespoon additional Greek yogurt. Serve over a bed of greens or between two slices of whole-grain bread.

Ingredients


  • 1 5-ounce can no-salt light tuna in water, drained

  • ¼ cup finely chopped apple

  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped celery

  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion

  • 3 tablespoons low-fat plain strained yogurt, such as Greek-style

  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped herbs, such as parsley, dill or chives

  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

  • ⅛ teaspoon salt

  • Pinch of ground pepper

Description

Combine tuna, apple, celery, onion, yogurt, herbs, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a medium bowl.
