Sardine Salad
This sardine salad recipe is a simple pantry meal and a fantastic alternative to tuna salad! It's creamy and has bright fresh herbs to complement the delicious sardines.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 (3.75 ounce) can sardines drained
- 1-2 tablespoons mayo
- 1/2 tablespoon finely chopped red onion
- 1 teaspoon chopped parsley
- 1 teaspoon chopped dill
- 1/8 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
- Hot sauce optional, to taste
- Seasoning salt to taste
- For serving: bread, tomatoes, lettuce, etc.
Instructions
- Drain the sardines then add them to a medium bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and mash with a fork to combine. Taste and adjust as needed (e.g. add more salt or mayo... quantities in recipes like this are just a guideline!).
- Serve in bread, lettuce wraps, etc.
Notes
- I add a couple dashes of Frank's Red Hot. If you're not a hot sauce fan, you can definitely leave it out!
- I love using Lawry's Seasoned Salt for extra flavor. Something like Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning would be great in here too, but the salt you usually use will work fine.
