THE BEST TUNA SANDWICH

Steps:

• Drain tuna very well and add to large bowl
• dice all of the above very small as indicated and add to tuna.
• I add about 3 -4 heaping kitchen sized tablespoons of Mayo into the tuna you may have to add a little more or a little less based on your preference
• add a few shakes of black pepper and salt (opt).
• Chill in airtight container in fridge. The longer you let it chill, the better the flavor. This can be served on pretty much any kind of bread. My personal favorite, onion rolls or seedless rye!
