Everyone has a tuna fish sandwich recipe, and this one is mine. The key to my sandwich is the chopped pickles and a little bit of pickle juice, because it makes the sandwich pop with tangy, briny flavor and prevents it from being dry. I also love to add chunks of pickle and onion for the crunch factor. This easy tuna sandwich recipe pairs nicely with a simple salad and some sweet potato chips.
