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.

TUNA-SALAD SANDWICH, JULIA CHILD STYLE
This was one of Julia Child's favorite dishes for a working lunch. For decades, Julia was on the road more than she was home and, when she returned to her beloved kitchen, she craved simple foods. For Julia, the important ingredients for this sandwich were the tuna (it had to be packed in oil) and the mayo (she preferred Hellmann's). Her longtime assistant, Stephanie Hersh, said, "The rest was up for grabs." Make it with capers, cornichons and chopped onion, a squirt of lemon juice and some herbs, serve it open-face on an English muffin or between slices of white bread, and you'll have Julia's midday signature.

Steps:
- Prepare the tuna salad: Using a fork, mash the tuna with 3 tablespoons mayonnaise. Add the celery, as much onion and chopped cornichons as you'd like, and the capers or olives, and toss to combine. Add a squirt of lemon juice, some salt (go easy at first) and pepper. Taste and see if you'd like more mayo, onion or cornichons. Add more lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the chives or parsley, if you're using either. (Makes 1 1/2 cups.) The tuna salad is good to go as soon as it's made, but it's even better after a couple of hours in the fridge.
- When you're ready to serve, spread the muffins or bread with a little mayonnaise. If you're using English muffins, do what Julia did: Make open-face sandwiches. Put a leaf of lettuce on each muffin half, top with tuna salad and finish with tomato and onion. If you're using sliced bread, prepare traditional sandwiches: Top each of 2 slices of bread with 1 piece lettuce, tomato and onion, then spread over the tuna and finish with remaining onion, tomato, lettuce and bread.
EASY (AND TASTY) TUNA SALAD FOR ONE
I made this up all by myself. My mom and I are big tuna eaters. I eat tuna everyday and I find this to be the EASIEST and TASTIEST way I can possibly make my tuna salad for my lunch everyday. It's very quick and takes me about 5 minutes, it's also low fat and good for you. My mom tells me all the time that she loves it. I enjoy it as well, I eat this tuna salad nearly every day for lunch at school. I eat it with crackers, on bread or plain with some fruit, the Mrs. Dash gives it a great flavor, I always keep Mrs. Dash on hand. I hope you like it. It's a recipe concocted by a 15 year old chef. lol.

Steps:
- Drain your tuna well.
- Scoop into a bowl with a fork and flake it well with your fork, breaking up the larger chunks of tuna.
- Add remaining ingredients and enjoy.
- Whenever I'm in a hurry I just use the mayonnaise, honey mustard and Mrs. Dash.
- When I have time I add the carrot which gives it a nice crunch.
- Eat it on 2 slices of whole wheat bread, with tortilla chips, or with crackers.
- Sometimes I just eat it plain it tastes just fine that way.
MY MOTHER'S TUNA SALAD
This is Julia Reed's favorite tuna salad, the one she subsisted on for years as a child, eaten with a fork straight out of a container in her mother's refrigerator. It's an unfussy thing that is exactly suited to be layered between two pieces of white bread - toasted, if you must - and then eaten at the kitchen table, or, after summer ends, at the lunchroom table. The ingredients are simple and easily acquired, and be sure to use real mayonnaise.

Steps:
- Drain the tuna, place it in a bowl and break it up with a fork. Add 1/4 cup of mayonnaise and blend well. Mix in the remaining ingredients, and add the rest of the mayonnaise. Check for celery salt, Season-All, salt and pepper. This is better if it sits at least one hour before serving.
