Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
  • 2 (5-ounce) cans of tuna, packed in water, drained well
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried dill)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the Eggs. Gently place hard-boiled eggs into a large bowl. Chop the eggs into small, even pieces. I like to use an egg slicer for this part – it makes it super quick and easy!
  • Drain the Tuna. Open the cans of tuna and drain the water really, really well. Nobody wants watery tuna egg salad. Flake the tuna into the bowl with the chopped eggs.
  • Add the Veggies and Relish. Add the finely chopped celery and red onion to the bowl, followed by the sweet pickle relish. These ingredients add a nice crunch and a burst of flavor.
  • Mix in the Wet Ingredients and Seasonings. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and chopped dill to the bowl. Season with black pepper and salt to taste. Gently stir everything together until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, or the tuna will become mushy.

Notes

This tuna egg salad is packed with flavor, protein, and it’s ready in minutes. It’s about to become your new go-to lunch or light dinner!
