CRUNCHY TUNA SALAD WITH SHOESTRING POTATOES



Crunchy Tuna Salad With Shoestring Potatoes image

My family has enjoyed this tuna salad for years. The salty crunch of the shoestring potatoes is a great complement to the creamy sweetness of the tuna and carrots. Add shoestring potatoes only at the very last moment as they become soggy after sitting. Make only as much as you will eat because these are not good as leftovers!

THE BEST TUNA SALAD



The Best Tuna Salad image

While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.
