I recently had a debate with my friend about using the term 'spread' vs 'salad'. She was surprised I referred to my tuna spread as a spread and not a salad. But I mean, you quite literally spread it on bread, so why would I call it a salad? The English language baffles me at the best of times! Whichever your reference on this one, I guarantee you will love spreading it over some fresh bread from your farmers market for a lovely breakfast or lunch option!

Let's start cooking!
*This is more of an assembly vs cooking, the eggs are the only thing we will be cooking here:
Step 1: Place 2 eggs in a small sauce pan, fill with water and bring to boil for 15 minutes. Remove from heat after 15 minutes and let cool in cold water until ready to peel.
Step 2: Open 2 cans of tuna and squeeze out oil, add to mixing bowl
Step 3: Wash celery stalk and finely chop, place in bowl

Step 4: Peel one layer off green onions and wash. Finely chop and place in bowl.
Step 5: Peel hardboiled eggs, use egg slicer to slice TWICE to get small cubes, add to bowl
