Sicilian-style Tuna Salad Sandwich 📍 Introduction:  The ultimate comfort food, a tuna salad sandwich is both practical and delicious. Packed with protein and ~$2/serving, this lightning-fast meal is exceptionally high leverage.  As tuna is shelf-stable, it’s helpful to have a few cans on hand for those lunches or dinners when you don’t have much in the fridge. Given its neutral flavors, it can serve as a canvas for a wide range of unique combinations. Go ahead and get creative!  🧂Ingredients:  *See reference guide below for inspiration Tuna  Base (e.g., bread, lettuce wrap)  Additions (e.g., crunchy, creamy, salty)  Toppings (e.g., tangy, aromatic) ✅ Instructions:  Gather all ingredients. Combine all tuna salad elements slowly (e.g., 1 tsp at a time). Taste regularly.   If using bread, toast in a pan & add butter towards the end. (Optional) Assemble sandwich.  📝 Notes Tips & Tricks Tuna salad makes for a great snack (e.g., with crackers), lunch (as a sandwich), or dinner (e.g., decadent tuna melt on gourmet bread with a side of soup.)  Chop everything as finely as possible to encourage the melding of flavors.   Water-packed tuna is lower in calories but higher in omega 3s than tuna packed in oil. To use, drain the water. Oil-packed tuna has more flavor and is higher in caloric value.  Mayonnaise quality has a significant impact on flavor. Use the highest quality you can find (or make some).  No-salt canned is best. If you can’t find it, rinse the tuna out for a few minutes to reduce the sodium.  Try to seek out sustainably-caught, dolphin-free tuna. 📓 Reference Guide Sample Tuna Salad Additions 🗂 Example Recipe: Sicilian-Style Tuna Sandwich Tuna salad: Tuna   Dill (or dill weed) Lemon juice   Salt & pepper  Olive oil (or mayo)  Base & Additions: Bread Butter Arugula B&B pickles 🎬 Video Demonstration: 🎓 Further Study How to Boil an Egg [Life School] Pickled Red Onion [Life School] Green Goddess Tuna Salad Sandwich [Bon Appetite] How to Make Mayonnaise [YouTube]  Mayonnaise [NY Times] ——— 📚 Want more?
