I used a little plain Greek yoghurt with less mayo and it was great. I just love Panera’s tuna and considering I just about live on my own tuna recipe, I wondered what their secret was. Thanks! Gray Poupon mustard it is! Now, if I could only get the perfect recipe for their Autumn Squash soup……..

The very best Panara tuna salad saldwich I have ever had was at their location on Coliseum Blvd. in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and it had a rather loose (goopy) tuna filling. With only 1 1/2 tsp mayonaise in this recipe, is it rather dry?
Dennis
I made it and yes it was dryer than actual Panera. I think a full tablespoon is a closer consistency for sure. Unless you dont drain the tuna well, which is nasty :)
Cyn
These sound good. I am going to try it with capers instead of pickle relish.
Ileana
I am actually working on the weight watchers program. Does the recipe make two servings or 1? Thank you for sharing such a simple and low fat recipe.
JS
SHould the measurements be tablespoons not teaspoons? Seemed very dry!
Cindy MacInnis
I agree…that’s not nearly enough mayonnaise…
Tracy
Can I use something else instead of relish
Tracy
If I don’t have relish is there anything you can use .
courtney f.
Chopped up pickles.
Lynda Brooks
Dill relish. I keep it in the refrigerator all of the time to make tuna salad. I also add celery and a boiled egg.
Monika
How does the hard boiled egg change it or make it better? I love deli style tuna and I have never been able to replicate it. 😊

Janet Vinyard

This has to be the simplest tuna salad on the face of the planet! BUT….a I’ve added diced celery (very small dice) to give it a nice crunch texture and a small amount of celery salt .
Another addition to the salad is angel hair coleslaw! Double your recipe the add 2 handfuls of the angel hair coleslaw and mix well….everyone I’ve made it for loved it.
gina
That looks so good and I haven’t had tuna salad in far too long!
Tommye McNamara
Is it right teaspoon for mustard, mayonnaise, relish and not tablespoons?
Heidi
I agree it was too dry for only teaspoons. I ended up putting in more of every thing.
Allison
Yes, way to dry.
Mary
That’s a 6 or 7 oz can ( standard regular size) you can see it in the photo at the top
Arfie
Tuna is package of how many ounces?
Erlene

I feel the same way about the same way about those Panera tuna sandwiches!!! Can’t wait to try this!!
rita lovejoy
thanks for the great “secret”! can’t wait to make this!
Leah
Don’t waste your time. I followed the recipe to the letter & it tastes NOTHING like Panera’s?? It didn’t specify what “kind” of tuna so I’m just assuming the regular canned. If it’s albacore it may make a difference I don’t know because there’s no information about that one way or the other. I do know this is a LONG way from Panera’s recipe. Not even close!
Kim
This looks so yummy!!! Thanks for sharing!

Get a life and stop wasting my time.
