Ingredients

• 2 cans (5 oz each) Albacore tuna
• 2 Celery stalks
• 0.25 Red onion
• 2 tablespoons Dill pickles
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 cups Mixed greens or lettuce

Directions

Step 1

Drain the albacore tuna cans completely and transfer the tuna to a medium-sized mixing bowl. Flake the tuna with a fork to break up any large chunks.

Step 2

Dice the celery stalks into small, bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the red onion and dill pickles.

Step 3

Add the diced celery, chopped red onion, and dill pickles to the bowl with the tuna.

Step 4

In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, mayonnaise, and Dijon mustard. Whisk until the mixture is well combined and smooth.

Step 5

Pour the dressing over the tuna mixture. Add the chopped fresh parsley, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.

Step 6

Gently toss all the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated with the dressing. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper to taste, if desired.

Step 7

Serve the tuna salad over a bed of mixed greens or lettuce. Optionally, garnish with additional parsley or a slice of lemon.

Step 8

Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
