Chimichurri Tuna Salad is full of fresh herb flavor from the chimichurri bringing a simple tuna salad to an elevated level. In fact, it is like nothing you have ever tried before. Indeed, it will soon become a lunchtime favorite at your house. Lunch will never be the same again. In short, this is a new spin on an old classic.A bowl of Chimichurri Tuna Salad with a cracker stuck in it.

Chimichurri Tuna Salad:

This is not your mother’s tuna salad recipe. In any case, this salad has is full of fresh herby flavor and with slight garlic and spicy flavor. This tuna salad goes well on gluten-free bread. Consequently, this can be served as a  sandwich spread or as an appetizer for chips, crackers, and vegetables. It can go on top of celery or inside baby bell peppers.

Throughout, my kid’s school years I often packed this in our school lunch box as we headed off to our homeschool co-op’s. Needless to say, I have such fond memories of our co-op days. Life seemed slower and easier. Perhaps this is just my perspective from bygone days.

All in all, this is one of the quickest things to make. Of course, it can be made with store-bought mayonnaise however, it does taste better with my homemade mayo. Enjoy with Cheesy BBQ Sweet Potatoes, some Tex-Mex Brussel Sprout Slaw, and Huckleberry Cookies.

Subsequently, this recipe came about as a way to use up my leftover Chimichurri sauce. Therefore, I guess you could call this a leftover recipe. Amazon has a bunch of Gluten-Free Crackers.
