Below is a recipe for tuna salad from Christian Light Publications with pictures. The pictures are my own and I took them from home. I have made this recipe before with salmon and still thought it tasted great. I am not that picky though. Of course, the fresher the ingredients the better it tastes. Make sure to use the hard-boiled eggs within around three days. I once made the hard-boiled eggs in advance and had them sit for like a week, putting off making the recipe and they went bad and I had to toss them in the garbage. I found an egg slicer at the dollar store and it cuts hard-boiled eggs very nicely and I enjoy using it. Definitely worth the buy if you can find it and enjoy recipes like this tuna salad occasionally. Still, it is not necessary.
