Hello Darling,
Here’s praying for those of you who have come down with the
Coronavirus a safe recovery.
This evening I am posting a recipe for tuna salad. Yes I
know there are hundredth of recipes for tuna salad, and I have posted my own.
However, all the tuna and seafood recipes I have previously posted I used tuna
in vegetable oil. Mainly because I don’t like the watered-down taste of tuna
packed in water.
When the days were normal I could buy both tuna in oil for
myself and tuna in water for my husband. Being the barbarian he is he likes
eating it straight from the can. Yuck! Nevertheless, today was a game-changer in
that I was out of Tuna in vegetable oil and decided to use my husband tuna
instead.
This new recipe is wonderful in that the added ingredients
eliminated the bland watery taste of the tuna and made it a taste bud
delight.
