Sardine Sandwich

Instructions

- Drain the can of sardines very well. While they are still in the tin, crush them up slightly with a fork.

Top evenly with mayo, lemon juice, mustard, celery, green onions, black pepper, salt, and garlic powder (all 3 spices to taste).

Notes
* If you’d like to make more than 1 sandwich, just repeat this process with as many as you’d like to make. It’s more of an assembly-style recipe, so it’s very easy to scale up without having to think about it.
** If oil-packed, scale back slightly on the mayo. You can use either oil-packed or water-packed in whatever flavor you’d like.
