Strackeljahn Tuna Salad

I call this the Strackeljahn Tuna Salad because my grandfather was a horseradish farmer for over 50 years in the horseradish capital of the world, Collinsville, IL. I grew up loving this root. I find an excuse to put it in anything. So one day when I thought it was a great idea to try a little bit healthier version of tuna salad, I was pleased with my result. Here goes….

Ingrediants:

10-15 leaves Spinach

1 tomato

1 can of tuna 

1 tbsp Mayo

1 tbsp Sweet Relish

1 tbsp Horseradish

salt & pepper to taste

Directions: 

Mix tuna, relish, horseradish, & mayo in bowl, until tuna is evenly coated. Place spinach on plate. Slice tomato and arrange onto spinach bed. Then use 1/3 of the tuna salad or as much as you want, and save the rest in a glass container (you can use tupperware as well) to keep freshness. Usually lasts up to 4 or so days. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and Enjoy!

I really hope you enjoy the horseradish in it as much as I do, even if you don't like horseradish, try this! Leave a comment and let me know what you think! Thanks for reading!
