This creamy tuna salad is a delightful twist on the classic recipe, featuring fresh vegetables and a tangy dressing.
Open the cans of tuna and drain the liquid.
Ensure the tuna is well-drained to avoid a watery salad.
Chop the celery, red onion, and carrot into small, even pieces.
Uniformly chopped vegetables ensure even distribution in the salad.
In a mixing bowl, combine the tuna and chopped vegetables.
Gently mix to avoid breaking the tuna into too small pieces.
In a separate bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper to create the dressing.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning as needed.
Pour the dressing over the tuna mixture and gently stir to combine.
Ensure all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
Serve the tuna salad chilled, optionally garnished with fresh herbs.
Chilling the salad enhances the flavors and makes it more refreshing.
