1/4 cup finely chopped celery
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish

Instructions

In a medium bowl, flake the drained tuna with a fork.
Add mayonnaise, lemon juice, celery, red onion, and relish. Stir until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Lightly toast the sub rolls if desired. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each roll.
Spoon the tuna salad evenly onto the lettuce, then close the sandwiches with the top halves of the rolls.
Serve immediately or wrap tightly for later.

For extra flavor, add a dash of hot sauce or a pinch of paprika.
Store leftover tuna salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
To make it lighter, substitute Greek yogurt for half the mayonnaise.
