How to Make Aloha Albacore Tuna Salad

  1. Drain one 5-ounce can of albacore tuna and gently flake it into a large bowl.
  2. Add 1/4 cup of mayonnaise (adjust to your preference).
  3. Stir in 1 tablespoon finely chopped celery seeds.
  4. Add 2 finely chopped scallions (white and green parts).
  5. Incorporate 1/2 cup diced crisp apple (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp recommended).
  6. Gently fold in 1/2 cup diced water chestnuts.
  7. Sweeten with 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar (adjust to taste).
  8. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  9. Serve the tuna salad on a grilled Kaiser roll with organic greens. Alternatively, serve as an open-faced tuna melt: spread the tuna salad on toasted bread, top with cheddar cheese (1-2 slices per sandwich), and broil until cheese is melted and bubbly.
