Food Friday - Tuna Salad
This is a little twist on how I've always had tuna salad and it was very good!
This is a little twist on how I've always had tuna salad and it was very good! I found this in the book Dirty, Lazy, Keto 5 Ingredient Cookbook (along with tons of other great recipes!) and we definitely enjoyed having this for lunch. We ate it on a bed of spinach to get in a little more veggies and have something to put it on rather than the usual bread/sandwich the way most would eat it.
Ingredients
- 1 (5-ounce) can tuna packed in oil, drained
- 1 medium stalk celery, thinly sliced
- ½ cup finely chopped red onion
- ½ medium avocado, peeled, pitted, and thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons full-fat mayonnaise
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
- Add all ingredients to a large salad bowl and toss until combined.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve chilled.
TIPS & OPTIONS
For variety, consider adding a chopped hard-boiled egg to the mix.
Choose tuna packed in oil (not water). Not only will it taste better, the added fat will help keep you feeling fuller for longer.
Happy Eating!
