Crunchy Tuna and Almond Salad

bullet

½ cup light mayonnaise

bullet

1 teaspoon grated lemon rind

bullet

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

bullet

½ teaspoon curry powder

bullet

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

bullet

1 (13 ounce) can solid white tuna in spring water, drained

bullet

1/3-1/2 (10 oz) package frozen peas, thawed

bullet

2 celery ribs, chopped

bullet

¼ teaspoon salt

bullet

1/8 teaspoon pepper

bullet

Sprinkle of celery salt

bullet

¼ cup toasted slivered almonds

bullet

½ cup chow mein noodles

Stir together first five ingredients in a large bowl until blended. Add tuna and next five ingredients; toss gently to coat. Serve over greens. Sprinkle with almonds and noodles.

NOTE: This is from the April 2004 Southern Living. It called for ¾ cup of light mayonnaise. I do not like "soupy" tuna salad, so I cut it down to ½ cup and it was plenty. I also used light Miracle Whip, but that is just my preference. It said to toast the slivered almonds, but I had some sliced ones in the freezer and just sprinkled those across it, then topped it with the chow mein noodles. I did not have any lettuce, so I sliced a tomato and served it over the tomato. I also served it with the Poppy Seed Fruit Salad recipe I found in Taste of Home, which is elsewhere on the site.
