Tuna Salad Salad - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 (6 ounce) cans tuna (I love Kimmel's from the PNW, I buy it at Whole Foods)
1/2 cup mayonnaise (no Miracle Whip for me)
1/2 cup chopped celery (one to two stalks)
3 cups salad greens
olive oil
red wine vinegar
salt
fresh cracked pepper
2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and quartered
2 stalks canned hearts of palm, sliced
1 red bell pepper, chopped into twice-as-wide-as matchstick pieces
Preparation
-
Mix the first three ingredients and set aside OR stop there and eat as is or use for tuna sandwich, tuna melt, etc.
Divide the lettuce between two plates; dress with oil and vinegar, salt and pepper.
Pack the tuna mixture into a 1-cup measure and turn out onto the middle of one of the plates of lettuce; repeat.
Place the egg quarters, hearts of palm slices, and chopped red bell pepper around the tuna; if desired, garnish the top of the tuna with three pieces of red bell pepper.
I like to crack fresh ground pepper over all at this point.
