Ingredients

  • 14 ounces canned tuna 2 cans
  • 2 hard boiled eggs peeled and chopped
  • 1 medium celery rib finely diced
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • pinch sea salt
  • pinch black pepper

  • Drain and rinse tuna in a colander
  • Flake into smaller pieces, if needed
  • Add all ingredients to a large bowl, and mix well
  • Refrigerate until ready to serve

Notes

Refrigerate within 2 hours of serving, and keep in airtight container in fridge for 3-4 days.
If you are using tuna from a pouch or that is not packed in oil or water, you do not need to drain and rinse it.
