I made this as a guide. Was most excellent ever. People went nuts so good!
Just made and had this for lunch. It had the perfect amount of mayo mixture, and the crushed potato chips in the sandwich was great!
Another winner.
Potato chips! That’s one way to put crunch into the tuna salad :)
Must have soon.
