The Best Southern Tuna Salad
I didn’t get to spend enough time with my Mimi. So the memories I do have of her, I really hold them dear to my heart. When I think southern cooking, I think of her. When I cook a meal every night for my family, I think of her, because thats exactly what she did. She took care of everyone. She could make a gourmet meal just off of whatever what left in the house. She was inspiring. I wish I would have been old enough to jot down these recipes she just had stored in her beautiful mind, but I didn’t. So now I do my best to make it as close as possible. This is my Mimi’s Tuna Salad recipe.
This Tuna recipe sure does stand the test of time in my family. My dad has his very own mixing bowl he uses just for this recipe. His “TUNA BOWL” is so worn down, but he will never stop using it!
Now I know white bread has a bad name. But when I make this Tuna Salad, Its ONLY going on white bread. But please make it your own, and enjoy!
