EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Cut celery stalk lengthwise into about 1/2-inch pieces. Place several pieces together and cut crosswise into 1/4 to 1/2-inch pieces.

Use fat-free mayonnaise for a tuna salad sandwich with 3 grams of fat and 240 calories.

Substitute 1 1/2 cups chopped cooked chicken or turkey for the tuna. Omit the lemon juice.

Substitute 6 Hard-Cooked Eggs, chopped, for the tuna. Omit the lemon juice.

Substitute 1 1/2 cups chopped cooked ham for the tuna. Omit the salt and pepper. Substitute 1 teaspoon yellow mustard for the lemon juice.

Make your salad sandwich a little heartier by topping with lettuce leaves, tomato slices, avocado slices and a slice of cheese.

Mayonnaise or salad dressing--what is the difference? They are both thick, creamy dressings that contain vegetable oil, lemon juice or vinegar and seasonings. Mayonnaise also contains egg yolk and is less sweet than salad dressing. They can be used interchangeably so you decide which you prefer.

This is a great recipe! Fast, quick, and easy. I never would have thought to add lemon juice to tuna but it tastes great! I added chopped up eggs, a hint of mustard, and some chopped dill pickles with a touch of pickle juice to add a boost of flavor and it was delicious! My husband and I ate it up in 2 days.
