The Best Tuna Salad

4 (5 ounce) cans tuna packed in water (drained (see note 1))

1 cup mayonnaise (or less to taste (see note 2))

⅓ cup celery (finely chopped (about 1 rib))

2 tablespoons red onion (minced, about 2 small slices)

2 tablespoon sweet pickle relish ((see note 3))

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 clove garlic (minced)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions
In a medium bowl, combine tuna, mayonnaise, celery, onion, relish, lemon juice, and garlic.
Season to taste with salt and pepper (I like ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper). Serve immediately or cover and chill until serving.
Note: The addition of a hard-boiled egg or 2 would give additional protein and flavour.
