To celebrate the near-endless possibilities of tuna salad, we’ve rounded up our best tuna salad recipes that include everything from a tuna egg salad to a delicious tuna macaroni salad.
Quick Tuna Salad
Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
“I love this recipe. It reminds me of the tuna sandwiches my mother made for my school lunch! Try it with canned salmon and a squeeze of lemon. Delicious! Thanks for the recipe and bringing back happy memories!” — ShellyCooks
Avocado Tuna Salad
DOTDASH MEREDITH FOOD STUDIOS
“This was really good and healthy. Will definitely add this to my list of good recipes! Didn’t change a thing.” — BarbieLee
Barbie’s Tuna Salad
DOTDASH MEREDITH FOOD STUDIOS
“Incredible! I made the recipe as written except I subbed fresh minced red onion which I already had on hand. Served on toasted sourdough bread with crisp lettuce leaves. Will try as a spread with crackers next time around. Great update on the classic tuna sandwich!” — Gucci Girl
Tuna Fish Salad
“Very tasty! I added some hot peppers to give it a little kick. There’s a lot of flavors going on in this tuna salad, which balances the tuna instead of featuring it. I served it on toast and lettuce, though crackers would really highlight the flavors.” — Etcbeatty
Tuna Egg Sandwich
“This was so perfect. I made this earlier this week and I ate it everyday for lunch at school. I had followed the directions 100%. Very nice and refreshing. I had added a couple dashes of hot sauce, it is a tuna habit of mine.” — Ajaderecio
Tuna Macaroni Salad
Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
“I’ve made this several times over the years! I use frozen peas instead of canned peas, and I like to use bowtie pasta instead of elbows. It just makes for a pretty presentation if I’m serving it to guests or at a potluck, but really any kind of pasta is great for this salad. I have also been known to toss in a few thin strips of jarred pimientos for color and a little briny flavor.” — Jerrilynn
Best Ever Tuna Salad
“Excellent recipe that I have used time and time again since I found it.” — Blakstarn
Tuna Salad with Eggs and Pickles
“My entire family truly enjoyed eating this dish and everyone rated it a “5.” I will definitely make this dish again and again as this was mighty tasty.” — Peggy
Virgina’s Tuna Salad
“This was an excellent tuna salad recipe. I added chopped onions to mine and it came out yummy! Thanks so much!” — Tonya
Mediterranean Tuna Salad
“OMG… This was soooo good! This is my first review as I normally don’t do them! I made it exactly as described. You could eat it with salad, wraps, toast, sandwich, lettuce wraps or straight up as I did! Thank you to who ever posted it!” — Brianm96754
No-Mayo Mediterranean Tuna Salad
“I quite enjoyed this tuna salad; definitely a step up from the usual varieties! The hummus was a great addition (I used lemon hummus) and I loved the saltiness from the olives (I used Kalamata). I served this over lettuce leaves for a lower-carb option.” — France C
Italian-Style Tuna Salad
“This recipe is very good! It satisfies especially by adding a bit more protein with the egg like in the picture. I personally made it for two and added a bit more of the red wine vinegar which I like. I however, used the full can of tuna. For a light dinner or lunch this is fantastic.” — Plates4u
Chickpea Tuna Salad
“I loved the ingredients but wanted to put this into an ancient grain wrap. So I ran the chickpeas through a food processor to break them down a bit. Simply delicious. The lime makes it.” — Maria’s Kitchen
Zesty Tuna Salad
“I made this again for lunch today and it was delicious! I added a little garlic powder and increased the mayo. Serve it on toast or with a garden salad inside a hollowed out tomato or red pepper and it’s a lite lunch.” — Jillian
Carrie’s Garlic Pesto Tuna Salad Sandwiches
“So good! I am glad I found this recipe as I was looking to use up leftover pesto that I had made in something that didn’t involve pasta. I also substituted garlic powder and left out the mustard. I will definitely be making this again!” — Elyshia Reis
Tuna Salad with Cranberries
“This is wonderful! Now I will always have cranberries stocked so I can make these sandwiches.” — Fushigina_tenkousei
