Ingredients
  

  • 25 oz tuna or salmon drained
  • ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes finely chopped
  • ½ cup celery finely chopped
  • ½ cup red onion finely chopped
  • ½ cup hummus
  • 1 to 2 Tbsp stone ground mustard to taste
  • 2 Tbsp fresh dill chopped
  • sea salt and black pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Chopping board
  • Knife
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Fork

Method
 

  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients. Drain the canned tuna or salmon well, and set it aside in a mixing bowl. Chop the sun-dried tomatoes, celery, red onion, and dill finely.
  2. In the mixing bowl, add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, celery, red onion, and fresh dill to the flaked tuna or salmon.
  3. Spoon in the hummus, and add 1 to 2 tablespoons of stone ground mustard. Mix everything together until well incorporated.
  4. Sprinkle in sea salt and black pepper according to your preference. Give it another good mix to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.
  5. For the best flavor, let the salad chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld beautifully.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator; it will keep well for up to 3 days.
  • For best results, mix in fresh ingredients like dill just before serving.
  • Consider portioning it into individual containers for easy grab-and-go lunches.
