Sometimes I like some green olives in there
Always dill pickles, I am overloaded with them
Occasionally I will substitute a ripe avocado instead of mayo when I feel gourmet

1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/4 cup vaganaise
1 tablespoons rice wine vinegar

Mix it all together and put it on toast. Good stuff!

I get canned Bonita & Yellowtail from a cannery in Baja - La Bocana.

They aren't even on the WWW as far as I can tell = it's heavenly - otherwise, I smoke the fish myself, like these 20 kilo yellowtail or this Bonita, this is a slab of YT.

Keep it simple - it's all about the fish!

* Smoked fish, flaked
* finely diced celery
* finely diced green onion
* just enough mayo to stick it together
* S&P to taste

That's all, folks!

I worked in an Italian deli (not a gourmet one) in college (D'Agostino's East Arlington) and we'd mix Italian tuna packed in oil with chopped pickles, tomatoes, onion served on a sub roll with with lettuce. Not bad. Now I'd probably add to that parsley, and capers and lemon and Aleppo pepper.

When making mayo tuna I always liked what my mom did which was to add grated carrot, fresh herbs, celery, lemon maybe.. can't be sure.
