Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cans (5 oz each) canned tuna (in water)
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 4 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp onion powder
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp green onions (finely chopped)
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley (finely chopped)
Instructions
Drain the canned tuna thoroughly and place it in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature or microwave it for 10 seconds to make it easier to work with. Add the cream cheese to the bowl with the tuna.
Add mayonnaise, lemon juice, dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.
Using a fork or a hand mixer, blend the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and creamy, breaking up the tuna as you go.
Stir in the finely chopped green onions and parsley for a burst of fresh flavor.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to suit your preference.
Transfer the tuna spread to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled with crackers, fresh bread, or vegetable sticks. Enjoy!
