The Best Tuna Salad (Quick Lunch)

I absolutely love tuna salad! It’s a great, quick snack or lunch option. You can add it to a lettuce salad, eat it with crackers, make a sandwich out of it, and the list goes on. That’s why it works so well for my family.

Although a little untraditional, I like to think I have one of the best, most delicious  tuna salad recipes. Check it out…

Ingredients

  • 4 (5 oz) cans of tuna (You can cook a tuna fish and make it from scratch, if you prefer.)
  • ½ of lemon
  • 2 stalks of celery, finely chopped
  • 2 Tbsps of parsley 
  • 2 Tbsps of yellow mustard 
  • 4-6 Tbsps of mayo (I use Primal Kitchen.) 
  • 1/2 cup of chopped red onions (optional) 
  • 1/4 cup of dill relish
  • 1/4 cup of sweet relish
  • 4 hard-boiled eggs
  • 1 Tsp seasoned salt

Instructions

  1. After opening the cans of tuna, pour the tuna into a strainer and squeeze lemon juice over it. Then, rinse with water.
  2. Boil the eggs.
  3. Finely chop the celery, boiled eggs, red onions, and parsley.
  4. In a large bowl, combine mustard, sweet relish, dill relish, mayo, celery, parsley, eggs, onions, tuna, and seasonings and mix.
  5. To garnish, use one sliced boiled egg, and sprinkle a bit of paprika and parsley on top.

My Crowd-Pleasing Turkey Bacon Cheeseburger

 

If you know me, you know I love hosting events and bringing everyone together. My Turkey Bacon Cheeseburger recipe will turn heads and spark conversation. It’s a crowd favorite at cookouts and comes with so many options for dressing. There’s nothing like gathering family and friends together and celebrating community. My recipe is quick and easy and makes for a unique bonding experience with the kids.

Let’s get into my Turkey Bacon Cheeseburger recipe!

Ingredients:

  • 1 family pack of ground turkey (3/4lbs)
  • Bacon
  • 1 pack of Lipton soup mix
  • 1 pack of ranch mix
  • 1 tablespoon of Emeril’s Burger Bam
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Trinity mix
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • Ice cubes

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, mix ground turkey, trinity mix, soup mix, ranch mix, burger bam, garlic powder, and cumin. Work seasoning through but don’t overwork it.
  2. Pat the burgers out to the size of your liking. (For large or small buns, patty melt, or sliders.) You can also use a burger silicon press to achieve more uniformed patties.
  3. Preheat the skillet or grill. For the skillet, I like to use a dash of avocado oil to coat. Place the burgers on the skillet, and while it’s cooking, place an ice cube in the middle of each patty. This helps maintain moisture.
  4. Pour your tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce over burgers while they’re cooking.
  5. Once side 1 has browned and the ice cube has melted, use a thin spatula to flip the burgers. Let side 2 cook until done (no pink).
  6. Now, place the burgers in the oven on super low heat to keep warm while you toast the buns/bread, cook the bacon, and slice your veggies.

Everyone in my house has different taste buds, so here are a few options for dressing your burgers.

 

Options for Dressing Your Burgers:

  • Brioche buns
  • Sourdough bread
  • Hawiian king rolls
  • Lettuce
  • Tomato
  • Cheese
  • Guacamole/avocado
  • Fried egg
  • Grilled onion
  • Onion rings
  • Mayo
  • Mustard
  • Ketchup
  • BBQ Sauce
  • Hidden Valley Secret Sauce

What to Pair with Your Turkey Bacon Cheeseburger?

My Turkey Bacon Cheeseburger recipe pairs well with onion rings or fries for a taste of comfort. If you’re looking to add health-conscious sides, I got you covered! I love pairing this juicy turkey burger with roasted broccoli and/or roasted kale chips. These sides add smokiness and a bit of crunch to your plate.

Once your guests take a bite out of this Turkey Bacon Cheeseburger, it will surely become your party staple!
