- 1 teaspoon mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
- 30 g walnuts chopped
- to taste green onion stalks
- a handful fresh parsley leaves

Instructions
- Before you start, make sure all your ingredients are ready to go. Drain the tuna well and chop your walnuts, green onions, and parsley.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the well-drained tuna and cream cheese. Use a fork to break up the tuna and thoroughly mix it with the cream cheese until it’s smooth and creamy.
- Stir in the teaspoon of mayonnaise or Greek yogurt for added creaminess. This will enhance the flavor and give your spread a lovely texture.
- Add the chopped walnuts, green onions, and parsley to the mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir everything until well combined.
- For the best flavor, let the spread chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully. Serve it with your favorite crackers, toasted bread, or fresh vegetable sticks.
