Apple Curry Tuna Salad
Here comes another simple recipe that requires Zero Cooking. It’s become a welcome habit when you have little time in the evenings. What I love about this recipe is the great mix of flavors (apples, curry, parsley, and a tiny hint of lime) and the fact you can make a bunch of it all in one go. In fact, I took some for lunch today.
I first discovered the joys of adding curry powder to tuna fish when I made this allrecipes.com recipe many years ago. Since then, I’ve simplified and improved the recipe (I hope) with fresh curly parsley and apples!
Start with a lot of cans of tuna fish (I used a really big 4lb can).

Then I finely chopped around 2 cups of curly parsley.

Then I peeled and diced 2 apples.

I dipped the apple pieces into some lime juice mixed with a bit of water. This stops the apples from oxidizing and turning brown. It also adds that citrus hint to the salad. But you can skip this step if you’re in a hurry as the apples won’t brown too much.

I placed everything into a large mixing bowl.

And then added in the mayo, curry powder, and a touch of salt.

Then it’s just mixing it really well using a fork or a whisk.
