One of my favorite things is mayo.  Seriously.  I could and can eat it by the spoonful.  Because I love mayo, I’m always making foods that require it as an ingredient.  Mr. Bejelly did not like tuna fish and no matter how much I tried to convince he would like it, it wasn’t he saw Little tear through it like he was in a berry patch (my son loves berries) that he took his first bite.  Anyhow, he was making every kind face because I put eggs in my tuna.  You would think I had broke some sacred tuna fish law the way he was going on about it.

hard boiled eggs

I soldiered on because I have eaten it this way my entire life (and after he took a bite and kept eating I figured it was all good).    This recipe is super easy.  I love that it’s fast and filling.  For the bread, I cheated and bought a box of Chebe Focaccia mix

    I like mayo, but am excruciatingly fussy about tuna & will only buy good jarred tuna slices. The cheapest I’ve found (that my fussy butt will eat) is $7 a jar, so it isn’t going in mayo 😛

      Aw, come on now Robin 🙂 It is so true that the quality of tuna affects the taste. I buy an expensive can of tuna because I can’t stand the taste of some of the lesser brands.

    Now this is interesting because I despise mayo as much as you love it! That means I can’t eat things like this because I have yet to find a good substitute.

    This is how I make mine, except I use a little less mayo and a little more mustard. 🙂 I’ve always made it (so did my Mom) with hard boiled eggs in it.

    Interesting, I’ve never heard of eggs in tuna salad before. I usually make mine with Miracle Whip, I like that zing to it.

    I love egg and onion in mine, and sometimes I’ll sneak in some sweet pickle relish – no HFCS stuff!

    I was just looking at your recipes and saw this yummy one. I won’t need to copy it as this is the way I make my tuna as well! I do add chopped up sweet pickles (sugar-free) occasionally. I either eat it as is, wrapped in lettuce or piled on top of shredded lettuce.
