All of these recipes look yummy. I make mine with a squeeze of lemon, then add mayo, a sprinkle of onion powder, parsley flakes and chopped artichoke hearts.

We always make a large batch when we have it. My version prefers Miracle Whip, a generous dash of lemon pepper, half a teaspoon of curry powder, finely-diced celery and onion, chopped eggs and drained sweet pickle relish.

I use an Amish recipe from, “Amish Cooking with Sicily Yoder”, that has cream cheese, Miracle Whip, tuna, toasted pecans, and ground pepper. It is placed on buttered bread- YUMMY!!

I also mentioned tuna salad variations on my blog. I really like sweet zucchini relish. My neighbor gave me a jar and it is wonderful in tuna salad (and on hot dogs and burgers).

I am an American living in the UK. They put canned corn (they call it sweetcorn) in tuna here, with mayo. It doesn’t appeal to me, but is very popular, so maybe worth a try for one of you!

You can buy ready made tuna salads here, not kits like in U.S., but tuna and various additions, already in the can! There are several varieties, but I tried the plain with mayonaise and decided not to go any further. Ewww!

Thanks so much for linking to this for the "Frugal Food Series: Tuna".I've got to try that cream cheese one. Then again-maybe I shouldn't. They sound addicting.

I have two variations –

1. finely chopped apple, walnuts, and mayo
2. finely diced green olives and mayo.

The 2nd version I picked up in Italy. It’s especially nice if you make two distinct layers – one of tuna & mayo, one of olives.

My standard “recipe” is:
water packed white albacore
mayo
lots of dill relish
a dash of Worstershire
a few shakes from the Season-All cannister
some tarragon (very yummy with tuna!)

I like mine simple. Miracle whip, bit of seasoning salt, coupla tablespoons of sweet relish, a dash of celery salt, and then a mound of it on a slice of white bread, with three tortilla chips (yes odd I know, but it adds a nice crunch) on top, finish with another piece of white bread and enjoy.

I make mine with Miracle Whip, very small diced onions, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Put it on a nice fresh crusty roll or toast, with lettuce (and sometime potato chips!)
