Ingredients:
2 cans Tuna (Drained)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Sweet Relish
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Japanese Pepa
6 eggs hard boiled and peeled
1/2 yellow onion diced!
mustard (honey or hot)
Smash peeled hard boiled eggs through a mesh strainer. the eggs should be a fine mushy consistency. Mix the strained tuna, with the eggs, onions, relish, lemon juice, salt & pepa. when its all mixed together add the mustard or your choice to make the consistency of the tuna salad more cohesive. For this recipe I used Beaver brand honey mustard. Mix it all well together and serve with bread or crackas!
FYI: the Japanese pepa is "shichimi togarashi" found in Asian markets.
(my attempt at presentation! Tuna salad on crackas and toasted bread circles! W/ white wine)
My Review:
While trying to find a mayonnaise free tuna salad online i came across this recipe but changed everything, and really made my own recipe. The only thing i kept was the hard boiled egg mush to make it mayonnaise free. This recipe is healthy, tasty, and high in protein! The tuna salad actually has the consistency of pate' or liverwurst, and its not bad at all. You can totally pass this off as some fancy "hors d'oeuvres" at your next party! LOL
Last shot of my creation garnished with chopped salad greens and pimento pieces! =)
