Notes
- Use a strainer to ensure the tuna is very well drained.
- Ensure eggs are chilled after cooking. Use any method to cook them. Our favorite is in the air fryer at 250°F for 17 minutes for large eggs (no water needed).
- Swap in Greek yogurt for some of the mayo to reduce the calories slightly.
- Leftover tuna egg salad can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir before serving again.
