Yellowfin Tuna
Tuna is the star of the course. Don’t use the cheap stuff. Buy the premium stuff to raise the level of flavor in the dish.
Tonnino is a premium brand. It’s a little pricier than other options, but it’s worth it.

This band is similar to Tonnino but half the price. You get the same flavor with almost the same amount of tuna in each package.

Plant-based Mayonnaise
Plant-based mayo, often called Veganaise, has a sweet flavor with just a few ingredients.
This is number 1 on my list of Veganaise brands. It has a free simple ingredients and tastes the same as mayonnaise.

Fresh Veggies
Always use organic fresh veggies when you make salads like these. Frozen veggies turn mushy when they thaw.
Depending on the size of the salad, you need one to four stalks of diced organic celery.

Seasoning
How you season this dish matters because nobody likes to eat bland tuna.
Pink Himalayan Sea Salt is a better salt. Season the salad to taste with it.

Organic onion powder lifts the flavor in the salad.

Utensils
The right serving spoon leaves the seasoning in the bowl and not on the spoon.
I love to serve with wooden spoons because they are non-reactive with the ingredients in your dish. Other types of serving utensils are, which affects the taste of the food.

Serving Bowls
Serving bowls is all about presentation. Present this salad in one of the bowls.
