Heres my classic tuna sandwich.
Tuna in oil, not water.
Juice from the pickle jar adds tang oh, and lets use the pickles too!

Dijon for flavour, dill for lovely herbiness, celery for crunch and green onion for freshness.
Spread onto your favourite bread and enjoy!
Only homemade tuna sandwiches
One of my dark food secrets is that Im actually a picky eater.
The list of things I dont want to eat is actually pretty long.
Which is why I have to cook.
Case in point tuna sandwich.
Maybe there are great tuna sandwiches out there.
(Oh yes I do!)
What you need for Tuna Sandwich Filling
Heres what I put in my tuna sandwich filling.
Tunain oil will make tastier sandwiches than tuna in water.
Olive oil is better than just plain oil.
But if tuna in water is all youve got, dont hesitate to plough forward!
Canned tuna types As with most things in life, not all canned tuna is created equal.
Better quality tuna and responsibility fished tuna is pricier.
So the pickle punch in matters!
I use your everyday standard dill pickles.
Not sweet pickles, not sweet gherkins, not cornichons, not sour pickles, not spicy pickles!
(Just jesting with the sternest, you’re free to use any pickles you want here.
:))
Green onion For freshness.
Celery For much needed crunch, else the filling is just mush.
Finely minced so it melds in.
Dill For herby freshness.
My favourite with tuna, though basil and parsley would make great alternatives.
Also: bread of choice (not going to lie.

Everyday sandwich bread is my favourite!).
For extra perky freshness and soggy-bread-protection.
Use a wooden spoon to mix assertively, breaking up the tuna into almost like a paste.
Make sandwich Butter the bread, top with 2 slices of lettuce then tuna sandwich filling.
Use as much or as little as you want.
Sometimes Ill double up, for extra protection.
If you do that, your sandwich will be good for a day!
Number of sandwiches This recipe makes a generous amount for 4 sandwiches using everyday sandwich bread.
you could make more if using smaller bread rolls.
As a side note,JBmade mayonnaise using the oil we drained from the tuna.
So we didnt use the homemade tuna mayo in this recipe.
Hide in the storage room.
With Dozer, of course.
