Mix the salad ingredientsAdd mayonnaise, diced red onion, celery, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, black pepper, and optional dill to the bowl. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
Adjust seasoningTaste the tuna salad and adjust seasoning if needed. Add more mayonnaise if you prefer a creamier texture, or more lemon juice for extra tang.
