Easy Tuna Pate

This is an easy appetizer you can literally whip up in 5 minutes - it's best if you prepare at least 6 hours ahead of serving to allow for chilling and having the flavors 'blend' together. Makes all the difference in the world.

Good dip recipe. I needed a dip to add to my buffet table for the ball game and chose this recipe. I liked the taste and texture. I served this with wheat crackers, pretzel crisps and bread sticks. Thank you for posting.

    Yum! Not usually a big tuna fan but the texture and taste is so great-I love this recipe. My family made fun of me when I mentioned tuna pate but they ate their words and there were no leftovers! Now I have to make it whenever they visit!

    Made this exactly as is for an Easter gathering with only one exception...I COULD NOT get the jar of gherkins open to save my neck, and DH was golfing, so I had to do without. I truly didn't miss it - and neither did everyone snarfing it down! I garnished it with extra toasted almonds and the thin-sliced egg. The taste is spectacular, the presentation is lovely, and the ease of preparation is superb. If I could give this more stars I would. I'll be making this to rave reviews in the future - and I can't wait to make it again! Great recipe, evelyn - thanks so much for sharing!

    Thank you Evelyn for encouranging me to try this recipe. It is delicious even with chunk light tuna (I used Starkist chunk light packed in olive oil). It was also very easy to prepare. I rinsed the salt off the tuna nad omitted the salt, pepper, Worcestershire and Tabasco. I used two snallish green onions for the onion and substitued two pickes plus half a teaspoon of natural sugar for the gherkins. It will be great to bring for lunch and also seems like a lovely contribution for potluck gatherings. Thanks again.
