- 1 tbsp yellow mustard
- 1/4 -1/2 cups mayonnaise
- salt and pepper to taste

Notes
Mayo: I use 1/4 cup of mayo but you can use more if you want your tuna salad more creamy.
I love the celery for the crunch but you can exclude it if you like.
Mustard: I add yellow mustard for the classic taste but you can update the taste with a dijon mustard.
I also sometimes add 1 tsp of dried dill to the tuna salad for a little different taste.
