This recipe is tweaked from one I found. It is so good, my husband, who is a very picky eater, often requests this! Enjoy and pat yourself on the back for eating a healthy meal.
Wonderful flavors! I substituted raisins for the dried cranberries and used plain Greek yogurt instead of mayo. Also, I left out the salt and pepper. The sweetness of the fruit balanced the tuna and yogurt perfectly. This is my new tuna salad recipe of choice.

I've never been as big a fan of tuna salad as my husband, but I did enjoy this. The cranberries and fresh apple provide just the right amount of sweetness. I did miss the crunch of chopped celery, so I'll probably add a little next time, and 2 Tbsp of mayo was more than enough. Had today for lunch using pita bread with some fruit on the side, but would be equally good on some spinach or lettuce.
Yum! I added sunflower seeds as well! I also served It on whole wheat bread instead of spinach.
I loved love loved this. I normally don't make tuna fish because it's boring to me. This was not. I did add about a tbsp of lemon juice, which have it a nice little bite. Delicious!
Great recipe! Now I'm going to substitute Greek yogurt (my wife doesn't like mayo), take the hint from the photo with your recipe and serve slices of fresh fruit on the side (she loves avocado and papaya), and serve stuffed into 100% whole wheat pita, along with spinach leaves! Thanks for sharing!
I used Albacore in this recipe and it was the best tuna salad my husband and I have ever had. Definitely on the make again list!
Super yummy! I've also made it with grilled chicken and it's delicious both ways!
This is soo good! I took the advice of another reviewer in effort to add more protein/health it up by substituting the mayo for Greek yogurt. I also used dried cherries instead of cranberries and added celery and put some provolone cheese on it. My boyfriend loved it. Made it the night before in bulk so it is quick easy protein filling to put in a whole wheat pita for a mid afternoon snack!
This was super easy and yummy. I doubled this recipe for my family of four. I chopped the spinach up and added it to the salad. I served it with flatbread but honestly it was yummy without bread.
This was awesome!! My kids hated tuna....until this. Great blend of flavors. Nice and healthy love it!!
I helped a friend who hosts a local television show, and we decided to do a cooking demonstration for this particular recording. I made this salad, and after the recording was completed, we shared our salads with the studio crew. Everyone LOVED this salad!!
Good recipe. Since my family's tastes are more spicy than sweet, I made a spicy-sweet tuna salad. I added 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, raisins instead of cranberries, 1 whole chopped apple, 1 1/2 tbsp light mayo and 1/4 tsp raw honey. it was the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. YUM!
I used raisins instead of cranberries and 1/4 chopped white onion instead of green. I also added some crushed pecans for a crunchy texture. I put the tuna on a bed of spinach un chopped. Delectable!
Delicious! I did make one small tweak I didn't use cranberries... I'm on a Paleo friendly vibe at the moment and used an olive oil mayo but it was sooooo good!
Very tasty! The cranberries go great in this recipe. The mayo is perfect proportion to the tuna. This is my new go to recipe!
It’s so nice to have a light tuna salad with lots of good crunchy bits. This is my go-to tuna salad now. Be forwarned it does not hold together like normal tuna salad, so will spill out of the bread. Make sure and serve it on a plate with a fork to pick up the fall-out.
This was pretty good. Slight changes I made: used miracle whip instead of mayo, used 2 5oz cans of tuna, and added 1/4 tsp of garlic powder. My kids loved the sweet and crunchiness of the apples. Great simple recipe.
This is really good! The flavors all compliment each other nicely and there's not an over abundance of mayo like some recipes...it's a perfect balance. I will definitely make this again.
The apple and the cranberries help offset the fishy taste, for those who'd rather lighten the tuna flavor. I love tuna, but really enjoyed the sweet juicy addition of the fruits. Easy and satisfying.
Great option when you don’t want the typical pickle relish version!! I’ve done with dried raisin, cherries and cranberries (whatever was in the pantry). I add some celery and curry powder to round out the sweetness.
Good recipe. I didn't add salt or pepper though. I think I'll add celery next time instead of green onions. I'll also do Greek yogurt instead of mayo. (I used Olive oil mayo this time which was slightly healthier than regular mayo.)
Made a double batch and substituted plain greek yogurt for lite mayo and added chopped celery. Great taste with a little crunch.
This is a nice change from traditional tuna salad. Makes a good sandwich too. My daughter really liked it to. Will definitely make it again
Best tuna salad i ever made. I added a hard boiled egg and some sweet corn and i mixed mayo w plain yogurt and some lemon juice . It came out creamy, delicious and looking great.
I added boiled eggs. I took it to a luncheon at church and everyone said it was good.
Good recipe as is but I found the apples and cranberries made it too sweet for my taste. The second time I made my own mayonnaise fron a recipe I found online, added chopped celery as suggested, and cut down on apples and cranberries . Delicious! I am now making it a third time and don't have any apples so we'll see....
Add celery and omit green onions! Can be served over romaine instead of spinach, too.
Made exactly as listed but added a sprinkling of roasted sunflower seeds and used raisins instead of dried cranberry because I had those on hand. This was really good! This will be a great addition to lunches.
Really good. I increased lite mayo to 1/4 cup, decreased craisins to 2 tbsp and added a squirt of fresh lemon juice.
I liked the additions here for a different take on tuna salad. I also added a little chopped celery and was thinking that some chopped pecans would work here, too. The amount of each ingredient is just right. I did let it chill the hour and had half over greens with oil and vinegar for dinner along with some homemade pickled beets and onions. I'll have the rest on a pita for lunch tomorrow. Thanks for the good recipe!
