Yummy Tuna Salad Sandwich

- #31963
ingredients
1 can albacore chunk tuna in water
2 tablespoons mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip!)
1 tablespoon freshly grated parmesan or romano cheese
1 teaspoon Grey Poupon classic mustard
1/2 teaspoon tiny capers
directions
Press as much water out of the tuna as you reasonably can, and flake it into a bowl. Add remaining ingredients and toss gently until well-combined but not mashed.
Serve inside hollowed-out tomatoes, on lettuce, or with lettuce (and tomato if desired) on good wheat bread, or however you like.
cook's notes
This is The Best Tuna Salad, IMO. Of course, I made it to my particular tastes, which you may find unusual. I'll give you approximately the proportions I use; adjust as you like.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

I'm not crazy about sweet tuna salad, and so many times a tuna salad recipe is bland. This one is anything but! I scaled this one up, because I had a bulk can of skipjack tuna (4 lbs.). The only modifications I made to the recipe were to reduce the mustard by about one-third (only because I ran out!), and I added a finely-chopped, medium red onion. This one is definitely going into my permanent recipe files!

I'm never considered myself big fan of tuna, but i found this be a delicious dish. Albacore has a much richer flavor than regular brown tuna. I substituted the capers for a 1/4 teaspoon of celery seed & added a little extra dijon mustard for flavor. Thanks for this great dish!!
