Recipe: Light Tuna Salad


Light Tuna Salad

1 (5 oz.) can tuna (*We recommend Bumble Bee)
2 boiled eggs (chopped)
1 cup light mayonnaise
4-5 small red grapes
1 tbsp. relish
Garlic Powder (to taste)
Salt (to taste)
Pepper (to taste)
Dash of paprika

In a bowl, combine the tuna (drained of excess water), boiled eggs, mayo, grapes (be careful not to smash grapes) and relish. Season with garlic powder, salt and pepper; mix well. Top with dash of paprika and serve.

*Johnna's tip: Serve with saltine crackers and enjoy a light and easy snack. We thought of adding the grapes just to jazz things up and we have seen/liked a pasta dish we had with red grapes in it. Tuna salad is such an old American favorite there are so many twist and turns you can put on it. Try garnishing with some fresh herbs such as parsley or dill.

LOVE adding tomatoes to my tuna salad. Sometimes I also add cucumbers and olives.
