Keto Tuna Salad – Important Tips
Tuna – Always have a can or two of tuna for a quick recipe. Avoid using oil-packed tuna which contains soybean oil, try to find a canned water-packed tuna for a healthy option.
Veggies and Nuts – Add chopped bell peppers, red chilis, chopped cucumber, and small avocado slices. For crunchiness, add chopped walnuts, sliced almonds, or pecans. Just saute the nuts in a pan before adding.
Add extra protein – Add sliced boiled egg and mix a small amount of cooked shredded chicken to the mixture.
Mayo – Always use a good quality mayo which is avocado or olive oil-based. Brands like Primal Kitchen or Chosen foods or Sir Kensington’s come with Avocado oil and no sugar. Avoid using use low fat or light mayo when on keto.
Mayo alternative – Add sour cream or greek yogurt or whole-milk yogurt. But this will taste very tangy.
