Classic Tuna Salad – Keto Recipe

Servings: 5, of 110 g each (total 550g)


INGREDIENTS

  • 222 g (2 cans or 8 oz) tuna – drained
  • 80 g (1/3 cup)  mayonnaise 
  • 27 g (3 tbsp)   olive oil  
  • 34 g (2 tbsp) lemon juice
  • 17 g (1/3 cup) parsley or cilantro – chopped well
  • 120 g (2/3 cup) celery diced into very small pieces
  • 24 g (1/3 cup) shallot or red onion – chopped
  • 6 g (1 tsp) garlic – minced
  • 19 g (1 tbsp)  whole-grain Dijon mustard 
  • 3 g (1/2 tsp)   salt   – finely ground
  • 1 g (1/4 tsp) – black pepper
  • OPTIONAL (not included in my recipe)
  • 16 g (2 tbsp) dill pickle (sugar free) – chopped into very small pieces

DIRECTIONS

  • 1.   Use light tuna in water. Open can and press tuna lightly to drain all the water. Place tuna meat into a medium sized mixing bowl

  • 2.   In a separate small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and olive oil, stir until well combined. Add the olive oil mixture to the tuna and stir

  • 3.   Into the mixing bowl, toss the other ingredients. Order does not matter

  • 4.   With a spatula, fold and mix all the ingredients until well distributed through the tuna. Cover the bowl with cling wrap and let rest in the refrigerator for a minimum of about 30 minutes. Tuna salad will keep well for several days (3-4 days) in the refrigerator if stored in an airtight or well-sealed container
