Canned Albacore Tuna - Two 6 ounce cans of your favorite albacore tuna. We used Wild Plant wild albacore tuna.

Mayonnaise - We like to use Best Foods/Hellman's or Chosen Mayo for a healthier cleaner version.

Yellow Mustard - I prefer regular yellow mustard in my tuna but you can also use dijon or a grainy mustard.

Dried Dill - Dill adds a nice flavor to the tuna.

Dill Pickle - You can use dill or sweet pickle in this recipe. We finely chopped up one dill pickle. You can also use a relish.

Celery - Adds a nice freshness to the tuna you will love.

Onion - We used yellow onion, but you can also use red onion.

Lemon Juice - Adds a nice tang to the tuna for a nice fresh flavor.

Paprika - Regular paprika is best, but I have also used smoked paprika and that worked good too.

Black Pepper - Fresh cracked or ground black pepper.
