I thought i was the only one who added relish to tuna salad. Great recipe...
Theresa @ Faith and Family Reviews says
One of the things that did not carry over from my childhood is a like of tuna. Just cannot eat it....it's fish and fish is just too fishy for me!
Anne - says
I love me some Tuna fish! This looks delicious!
Lisa says
This is one of my favorite sandwiches to get at Panera. Thanks for sharing this recipe so I can make it at home now!
Crystal says
It looks delicious, for sure. What do you think I could substitute for the mayo?
Myra says
Since I like spice, i like to add Spicy Ranch. Since it ranch and its also spicy, it does alter the flavor but It is what I do to avoid mayo and add a bit more flavor
Bobbi says
This sounds yummy!!! Love to find new ways to fix tuna salad sandwiches!!!
Angela says
I loved the tuna salad. I'll make this recipe again.
Dwight King says
I have used relish with tuna for years. I like the idea of adding dijon mustard. I also put sliced avocado on the sandwich along with finely diced onion.
Mary says
Where is the recipe?
Robin Gagnon says
Ugh... Thank you so much for asking. The recipe card got deleted somehow. I just put it back in.
h h says
Someone in the comments insinuated that this recipe was a new way to make tuna and I am now thoroughly confused. When did drained tuna, mixed with mayo, mustard and relish become new? I'll keep looking.
Robin Gagnon says
Yeah this is pretty "regular" tuna. You may prefer my Italian Tuna. It has no mayo and lots of chopped veggies.

Good luck in your search.
Tutty says
That was an awesome response to a fairly negative post. Ill try them both, if I don't like either one I just won't make it again and promise not to tell you it's mundane!
Robin Gagnon says
At least it's not just tuna and mayo...lol
Stacey says
Is 1.5 teaspoons of may accurate?
Robin Gagnon says
Yes, I know it doesn't seem like much. You can always add a little more after to your taste, but combined with the relish and mustard it should coat the tuna enough.

I’m with HH I thought I was going to stumble across something that was new this will end up tasting like the tuna I’ve been having since the 80’s lol maybe someone who works at Panera will leak the recipe 😩
