THE BEST TUNA SALAD
While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.

BASIC TUNA SALAD
I first had this tuna salad in my early teens when my aunt used to work at this deli and she would bring home containers of tuna salad home and I would just eat them straight out of the containers. It was the tuna salad that made me want more. Now that the deli is out of business, I tried making my own. Important Tip: Make this a day before you actually want to eat it so the flavors would seep into the ingredients. This is great to make and take with you to work or to have it for lunch on the next day. If you do take this to go, make sure you don't pack it with the bread as a sandwich because it will get soggy. Keep it in a separate container. ****Key thing to the mincing/dicing of the carrots is that you want to make them like coleslaw style so the carrots deliver the crunch but aren't too thick to the point it that it takes an effort to chew them.****

SIMPLE TUNA PASTA SALAD
Some of the best recipes are the most simple. This is one of those. I prefer it just as written, but you may add any ingredients you choose such as chopped onion, scallions, chives, water chestnuts, chopped hard-boiled eggs, lemon-pepper, dill, parsley, etc. I often take this to potlucks when I need a quick and easy (and economical) dish. I've never had to take home left-overs. Tuna pasta salads can be found at many pot lucks. Albacore tuna is plentiful on the Pacific Coast, and this recipe represents the Western U.S.

Steps:
- Combine the cooked and drained pasta with the drained tuna, chopped celery, peas, and mayonnaise, using only enough mayonnaise for the salad to be creamy.
- (If it's made ahead, you may need more because the pasta will absorb the mayo.) Chill at least 1- 2 hours before serving.
