Tuna Salad

Tuna Salad can be bought at almost every food store, large or small in the U.S.  It is easy to understand why, as it is simple to make, inexpensive and delicious!  I like to take it to take along on road trips.  To jazz up that experience, choose an all-grain bread, apply a little mayo to each slice and load with tuna salad.  Cut your sandwich in half and seal in a sandwich bag.  Slice enough tomatoes for the sandwiches you are making, salt and pepper and place in a different sandwich bag, adding generous servings of lettuce.  Put all of your bags in a container with ice (put the ice in sandwich bags to help prevent “loose” water in your container).  Add the veggies to the sandwiches on the road and enjoy with potato chips.  Bring napkins!  Here is my version of this American favorite.
