Instructions

Open the cans of tuna (or salmon) and drain any liquid. Transfer the fish to a large mixing bowl. Add all of the ingredients for the tuna salad to the mixing bowl.
Mix well until everything is combined and the ingredients are evenly distributed throughout. Taste the salad for flavor and add salt, pepper, mustard, lemon juice, or hummus to your personal taste.
Enjoy the tuna salad as is or make tuna salad sandwiches, tuna melts, lettuce cups, or lettuce wraps for a healthy meal. You can also add this tuna salad to your green salads along with any fresh veggies and dressing you like.
Store leftover tuna salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

Notes

For me, this recipe makes two servings, but depending on how much you eat, it can be 3 to 4 servings.
If you’re looking to meal prep for several workweek lunches, feel free to double or triple the recipe as it saves very well and is even more flavorful the next day after preparation.
