Tuna Salad with Aioli
Make your tuna salad even better with homemade aioli. Aioli is a step up from store-bought mayo — it’s full of fresh flavor from garlic, egg, Dijon, sea salt, and olive oil, without the preservatives or artificial taste. When I make aioli, I like to make extra to use over the next day or two in a variety of dishes. You’ll find serving ideas below.
Ingredients
Canned tuna, drained (preferably packed in olive oil for extra flavor)
Sea salt & freshly ground pepper
Optional:
Chives
Fresh lemon juice
Capers
Hard-boiled egg
Mixed greens for serving
Instructions
Add tuna to a bowl and break it up with a fork.
Add aioli to the tuna, either what you've got leftover or make a fresh batch — it takes just a few minutes to make.
Mix the tuna and aioli well.
Add extras like chives, celery, fresh lemon juice, sea salt & freshly ground pepper. Capers or hard-boiled eggs are also yummy additions.
Serve as a salad on a bed of mixed greens, or spread on crusty bread, or crackers.
