I had tuna, but none of the usual ingredients I mix in. I found pesto in the back of the fridge. It's unusual I know, but we really liked the flavour combination, even my husband who hates trying new things :-) Note: the cook time is for refrigeration.
Ingredients:
1 (6 ounce) can tuna in water, drained
2 tablespoons genovese pesto sauce, to taste
black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon mayonnaise, optional
1 lemon, juice of, optional
Directions:
1. Make sure the tuna is as well drained as possible, I squeeze mine in a sieve.
2. Mix with pesto and pepper to taste.
3. If you want a more spreadable consistency, mix in the mayonnaise.
4. A little lemon juice adds some zing if you like a more tangy flavour.
5. Refrigerate for at least 20minutes to allow flavours to meld.
6. Serve either as a sandwich or on crackers.
