TUNA CHEESE SPREAD

Tuna Cheese Spread image

This is really delicious, especially if you are low-carbing it. It's a great alternative to "plain" tuna salad. Can be used as a dip for celery sticks, spread on celery stalks, or stuffed in cherry tomatoes. Prep time does not include chill time, since you can leave it in the fridge for longer than the one hour mentioned in the recipe.

EASY DELICIOUS TUNA SPREAD (NON-DAIRY)

Easy Delicious Tuna Spread (non-dairy) image

The simplest part about preparing for any dinner party! Whenever I take it to a barbecue or potluck it disappears in a flash. Plus it keeps well in the fridge and is totally addictive. Can be served on crackers, as a spread, or in a small bowl as a side-dish. (Cooking time is for boiling eggs.)

Time 18m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped roughly
1 (185 g) can sandwich tuna, drained
1/2 small onion, chopped finely (optional)
2 tablespoons egg mayonnaise (sometimes sold as 'real mayonnaise')
1/2-1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
1 sprig parsley, to garnish

Steps:

Using a fork, squash the egg thoroughly until uniform in texture and colour.
Add sandwich tuna.
If using tuna in water, add olive oil; if using tuna in oil, leave it out.
It's possible to use chunk tuna instead, you just have to put more effort into squashing it well.
Add the chopped onion, mix and squash a bit with the fork-- I find this releases the juice from the onion and adds flavour without giving it that'onion-y' taste.
Add mayonnaise and mix well.
Serve in a small bowl and garnish with parsley as desired.
Also works well on crackers or as a spread.
Keeps in the refrigerator for at least a week-- I haven't tried longer than this because it always gets eaten!

THE BEST TUNA SALAD

The Best Tuna Salad image

While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.

TUNA CHEESE SPREAD

The flavor of tuna is very subtle in this thick and creamy spread. It's terrific on crackers or carrot and celery sticks, stuffed in a tomato or used for a sandwich. -Dorothy Anderson, Ottawa, Kansas
