Notes

  • Prep tips:
  • Cook bacon in advance - to have cooked and crumbled when ready!
  • Drain tuna in advance - use a paper towel to remove excess moisture. We want the tuna completely drained so the tuna salad isn’t liquidy. 
  • Prepare honey mustard - go ahead and mix together the ingredients for the honey mustard. You can also just skip making the honey mustard sub for your favorite
