TUNA CHEESE SPREAD



Tuna Cheese Spread image

The flavor of tuna is very subtle in this thick and creamy spread. It's terrific on crackers or carrot and celery sticks, stuffed in a tomato or used for a sandwich. -Dorothy Anderson, Ottawa, Kansas

Categories     SIDE DISHES

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cans (organic) tuna in olive oil (see comments above)
Lemon juice and pepper to taste
A few leaves of parsley or chives
Optional: ricotta

Steps:

  • Open the cans and pour most of the oil into a separate glass or bowl (you'll add some of the oil later on)
  • Put the tuna in your food processor with a few squeezes of lemon juice, parsley and some pepper
  • Blend and slowly add some of the oil you saved from the cans. I usually add about half of the oil, but it's up to you to decide on the desired consistency. It's a spread so it shouldn't be too runny, but you don't want it to be dry either
  • Optional: I find some brands of canned tuna too salty. If that's the case, I add a few spoons of ricotta to neutralise the salty taste and add some extra creaminess
  • This tuna spread will keep about 1 week in your fridge

TUNA CHEESE SPREAD



Tuna Cheese Spread image

This is really delicious, especially if you are low-carbing it. It's a great alternative to "plain" tuna salad. Can be used as a dip for celery sticks, spread on celery stalks, or stuffed in cherry tomatoes. Prep time does not include chill time, since you can leave it in the fridge for longer than the one hour mentioned in the recipe.
