Apple Tuna Salad Recipe

• servings: 8 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 13 minutes

Ingredients

20 oz tuna in water (four, 5-oz cans, well drained.)

1 medium granny smith apple (seeded and diced)

1 avocado (pitted, peeled and diced)

3/4 cup real mayonnaise (or added to taste)

1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice (or to taste)

1/2 cup sliced almonds or chopped walnuts (toasted)

1/8 tsp black pepper (or to taste)

Directions

Toast nuts on a dry skillet until golden. Remove from heat and cool slightly.

To drain tuna, I open the lid then press it down firmly over the tuna to drain off as much water as I can squeeze out. If your tuna is too wet, your salad will be wet.

Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and add a pinch of black pepper and 1/2 tsp lemon juice, or to taste. Add mayo to taste.
