Joe and I often have Tuna Salad for lunch on Sundays and this is my favorite tuna version. I find that the lemon juice and capers compliment the tuna so well and the russian dressing gives a little extra “zing”. It can be a little difficult to locate a russian dressing but Ken’s Steakhouse Dressing has a really good one. This makes approximately 2-3 servings depending on your appetite.
Ingredients:
6.4 oz package of Albacore Tuna in water
1/2 medium lemon, juiced
2 tbsp mayo
1 tbsp russian dressing
2 tsp capers
kosher salt to taste
Directions:
Drain water from tuna and place in small bowl. Add juice of 1/2 lemon, mayonnaise, russian dressing, capers. Add salt to taste starting with a pinch of salt. Mix well with a fork and serve immediately or place in refrigerator to chill.

I love tune salad! thanks for offering one I have never tried before. Lately I made a great one using chickpeas but couldn’t take a picture (camera is missing in action).
I make chicken salad more often than tuna, but always eat it on tomatoes and crackers, just like your first picture shows 🙂 Triscuits are my absolute favorite choice.
I love tuna salad especially with ripe tomatoes, yummy!
The tuna salad looks yummy. I love this healthy-delicious recipe. I will surely give it a try.
Thank you for your comments. I love the lemon and capers in this Tuna salad and with the tomatoes, it’s great.
