No-Mayo Tuna Salad
Description
This is my Mom's recipe for tuna salad which happens to contain no mayonnaise. Being Catholic, we had it every Friday night for dinner.
Ingredients
•
5 eggs
•
1 1/4 cups bread and butter pickles
•
2 (5 ounce) cans tuna, drained
•
3 stalks celery, chopped
•
1/2 teaspoon salt
•
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
•
1 tablespoon sweet pickle juice
Directions
1
Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water and cool under cold running water. Peel.
2
Place the eggs and pickles into a food processor; pulse until roughly chopped. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in tuna and celery. Season with salt and pepper, and stir in the pickle juice until thoroughly blended.
