Very different tuna salad. I can only find 5 oz cans of tuna, so I reduced everything else just a smidge. I was surprised by how little you tasted the mushrooms in this. Think they absorbed some of the lemon juice so they tasted more citrusy than normal. Served on toasted Italian bread. Yum! Thanks for sharing. Made for Zaar Stars tag game.

When I made it yesterday, I was not sure of the fresh mushrooms cause I don't like raw mushrooms. But in this tuna salad, it's hard to notice the taste of raw mushrooms. I used only 1/4 cup of light mayonnaise. Great creamy salad. I ate it with toasted pita bread. Thanks Deantini :) Made for PRMR tag game
