Tuna Egg Salad

Happy Hippie's Note:

This is the recipe I use for my family and its always a hit. I use an equal amount of finely chopped hard boiled egg added to a can of tuna (I prefer the albacore tuna). For those who don't care for a strongish fish flavor in their tuna salad, this'll do it for you. It truely is awesome. Enjoy!

Simple, but flavorful way to make both plain "tuna salad" as well as this combo. I always add mustard (powdered preferably) to my tuna and it turns out with that added depth that lacks from just tuna w/ mayo and black pepper. This will become my new standard way of making these!

Exactly how I like my tuna salad. I must have eggs and onions in it. I really loved the mustard in your recipe. I used a little over 1 tbsp, but not quite the 2 tbsps. The celery seed seems like a lot, but it really isn't. Thanx for a tasty tuna salad!
