How To Make tuna stuffed lemons
-
Step 1Thinly slice the bottom of the lemons off to make them sit upright. Cut the tops off to make little caps.
-
Step 2Empty the inside of the lemons. Discard the flesh and reserve the juice for later.
-
Step 3In a mixing bowl, combine the tuna, cream cheese, roasted red peppers, mayonnaise, Miracle Whip, dill, and hot paprika.
-
Step 4Stir very well to blend before adding lemon juice, a little at a time, until desired taste; season with salt and pepper.
-
Step 5Evenly divide the mixture between the two prepared lemons and fill them up. Place the caps on and serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.
