Wow. This was a total surprise. I was throwing in the ingredients, worried that it was going to be a total flop. Flop it wasn't, dry it was. I threw in more mayo (well, whipped dressing), more mustard (I only had honey mustard), more lemon juice and more relish and served it on crackers. As others have said, the first bite was weird, but the more you ate, the better it got! It was DELICIOUS!!!!

This recipe as written was very dry, and the cinnamon flavor was a bit overpowering. I added a LOT more mayo (like 2 tablespoons or more) and then it was a very interesting variation on tuna salad, but one that I probably will not make again.

Great recipe! I'm not a huge fan of cinnamon so I used smoke paprika and 1 1/2 teaspoons of curry powder.

I omitted cinnamon as someone said that it was overpowering but added raisins along with dried cranberries for added flavour. Taste was somewhat bland initially and I had to add another tsp each of lemon juice and sugar to help perk up the taste. Eventual taste was ok but not outstanding and guess I would not make it again. Thanks for the recipe anyway...

Very good! Did have to use 2 Tbs. of mayo, no relish and did not use the full amount of cinnamon - only 3/4 tsp. May try full amount in the future :o) Served on warm biscuits layered with shredded cheese and thinly sliced cucumber - will make again!

I followed this recipe to a "T". The cinnamon flavor is overpowering. I decided to let the flavors "marry" overnight to see if the cinnamon flavor would dissipate a little, but it was even worse.

You know, this IS really good! I usually like celery in my tuna salad, but instead ate the salad on celery. The cinnamon/curry combo. tastes wonderful. I love the spiciness!

This is wonderful! I didn't have Dijon mustard and pickle relish, so I used regular mustard and skipped the relish. It tasted a little bitter, but I liked it. I'm sure with the relish and Dijon mustard, it'd be great! Thanks for the recipe!

The dijon-cinnamon-curry seasoning sounded a bit unlikely to me but I tried it anyway as so many reviewers gave it a high recommendation. I must admit that I used more mayo and less of both the curry and the cinnamon, but it absolutely worked. Next time I think I may omit the relish but add dried cranberries or raisins.

This is super simple and has a pretty good flavor, but its definitely not chunky enough. I added fresh onions and chopped celery to mine, and that made it the best! The cinnamon-curry flavor is fabulous!

I was looking for something different than the "tuna-mayo-egg-stir" variety of tuna salad, and this was surprisingly good. Being a bit of a coward, i didn't add all the cinnamon. I started with half and added more to taste... so by the time I was done, I probably added a teaspoon and a quarter or so. No relish-- don't like it so it's never in the house. I added a touch more mayo to wet the tuna since I left out the relish and it all worked out in the end. Will definitely make again. Might add some raisins and pecans or dried cranberries next time.

I really enjoyed this recipe. I left out the mustard, and I used cucumbers and carrots. For spices, I used turmeric as well. Prior to mixing the spices into the tuna, I dry fried the spices in a non-stick pan, as that's what I learned to do while learning to cook Indian food. It's nice, because the pungency of the cinnamon and curry powder are subdued with the heat, and the earthy flavors really come out.

As is, this recipe would be very bland and boring. I added some mango, raisins, and cut up apple, and used sour cream instead of mayo, and upped that amount. I also tried the lemon but then added some lime juice as well. After all those changes it turned out pretty well. I ate it with some Ritz-like crackers. And as I read in another review the first bite was weird and the second bite was okay but the third bite was good and it got better from there on out:) If you like mango I highly recommend adding that as that was my favorite part.

I had all the ingredients but the relish. I increased the mayo too, just like someone had suggested. This recipe is a great way to dress up tuna from the usual way I make it!

The first bite was weird. The second bite was better. From the third bite on, it was love! This is delightfully unique, very flavorful and spicy. I served this on crackers with cheese, coconut, and raisins. Delicious!

Wow, this was an awsome tuna sandwhich. I served this to boyfriend when he came home for lunch and he loved it, so did our picky 3 yr old. I did add some onion,celery and green bell pepper though and kept everything else the same. The curry and cinnimon go amazing together
