Hello everyone!

I'm looking for ideas for something to mix with tuna, or chicken salad and also put on a garden salad since dressings and mayo doesn't sit well, and I find them to dry to eat without anything on them.

how about yogurt mixed with dijon and a few spices that you like (chives, onion flakes, paprika ...)

I've used lemon before and just for extra taste here is a recipe for Mediterranean tuna salad

Ingredients

  • 1 can (5 oz) water packed tuna, drained (if you're not worried about the healthy fat content, get the Italian olive oil packed tuna in jars-- the flavor is terrific!)
  • 1 tbsp fresh chopped basil
  • 1/2 stalk celery, minced
  • 1 finely chopped scallion - green part only (optional)
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice, or more to taste
  • Extra virgin olive oil to taste
  • Salt and pepper to taste

I just use a little 0% plain greek yogurt and a squeeze of fresh lemon with a few grinds of fresh pepper.  kiss

Hummus....I heard it's a great substitute for mayo =) Try to get one with ingredients you can read, lol

One of my kids eats his tuna with mustard, not for me, but to each his own!
