My husband and his buddies love to pack these tasty sandwiches when they go on fishing trips. The tangy tuna salad gets fun flavor from sweet pickle relish and lots of crunch from apples, celery and walnuts. The satisfying sandwiches are a complete meal in themselves. -Ivy Eresmas, Dade City, Florida

What can I say? This was absolutely the most tastey and delicious apple tuna sandwich ever! I will make it again and again. Way to go!

We made this sandwich recipe, exactly as described above. We used a Fuji apple because that's what we had on hand. My whole family loved the sandwiches. Great blend of ingredients. We'll definitely make these again soon.

Delicious and simple change up to a staple. I started craving this as soon as it was apple picking time!

This was amazing. I usually just throw tuna and mayo in a bowl. This was delicious. Will make it like this all the time.

Daughter and husband loved it and so did I! We like tuna so something to do differently with it always is a plus!
