Notes
- Since this is such a simple recipe with few ingredients, make sure to use quality tuna.
- To make this a spicy tuna dip, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or 1-2 drops of hot sauce into the mixture.
- If you don't like Old Bay seasoning, try substituting with Cajun seasoning.
- Garnish the dip with some chopped green onions or fresh chopped parsley to the top of the dip for added color.
- I think this dip is best chilled but it can be eaten immediately after making.
