Instructions

Drain the tuna and add it to a bowl. Mash/flake it with your fork to desired texture.
Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and mix together. Taste and adjust as needed.
Serve in sandwiches (I usually add lettuce and cucumber to mine), wraps, or even lettuce wraps for a low-carb option.

Notes

Tuna salad will keep for 3-5 days in the fridge.
It's easy to halve the recipe to make 2 sandwiches... simply halve every ingredient (it's probably easiest to eyeball the mayo).
