How to Make Isaiah S Tasty Reduced Fat Tuna Salad

  1. Drain one 5-ounce can of tuna, reserving 1 tablespoon of the liquid.
  2. In a medium bowl, gently flake the tuna with a fork to your desired texture.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh dill (or 1 teaspoon dried dill), 1/4 cup finely chopped sweet pickle relish (or 2 cornichons, finely chopped), 1 tablespoon lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, and the reserved tuna liquid. Stir until well combined.
  4. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lemon juice for extra tang or mayonnaise for creaminess.
  5. Serve immediately in a sandwich with your favorite toppings (tomato, avocado, lettuce on toasted rye bread is recommended!) or over a bed of mixed greens for a light and refreshing salad.
