Tuna Salad

This easy-to-make tuna salad is great served on homemade bread. Toss a scoopful in a green salad to help get your daily greens!

I find that adding the onion and the celery give the salad a nice crunch! Spread some of this tuna fish salad on some of your very own homemade bread!

Yes, you can easily make your own bread, and we've been doing it for a while now ... there's such a sense of fulfillment in knowing that what you're eating has been 'prepared from scratch' and not poured out of cardboard boxes.

Ingredients for Tuna Salad:

• 2 cans tuna in water
• 1 tablespoon dehydrated celery
• 1 tablespoon dehydrated red or white onion
  
• 3 tablespoons sour cream
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• dash of salt and pepper

How to Make this Super Simple Tuna Salad:

1. Re-hydrate the celery and onion in a jug of cold water.
2. Drain the tuna as best you can in the kitchen sink, use a sieve or squeeze out excess water with your fingers/hands.
3. Spoon out the mayo and sour cream in a dish and mix well with the celery and onion.
4. Add the two cans of tuna, and blend in!
5. Season with salt and pepper, and chill the tuna salad in the fridge.

Consider Using Tuna in Oil Too!

If you're not weight-watching and you prefer a little oil in your tuna salad, try this: use one can of tuna 'in water', and the other can of tuna fish can be 'in oil'. 

Another option to be aware of: Tuna in foil pouches ... they're great! There's no excess water in the pouch, so to me, it's even more flavorful!

If using canned tuna, don't add ALL the oil (or water) as that will make it too soggy and we don't want it dripping out of the sandwich onto your clothing! :-)

Here is the link for 'beginner' bread recipe which we have used over and over and it tastes awesome ... and a link for Anita's Super Easy Bread which is what I make all the time now! 

I L-O-V-E it. With Anita's bread, just mix the bread up in a bowl, leave it alone for 2 hrs, shape it, then bake it for 25 minutes. It doesn't get much easier than that! The hard part is actually waiting for the bread to cool down ... :-)
