Hey Foodies,
Today I'm going to show you how to make one of the best tuna salad recipes in the world. Forgive my excitement, but I really love it and here's why.
First of all, it takes just 15 minutes to make. That's amazing for such a delicious and filling salad. And if you've got excellent chopping skills you can even make it in 5. How great does that sound?!
Second, it's super healthy. I made it without mayo and it's full of healthy ingredients, like avocado and veggies.
Furthermore, this avocado tuna salad recipe is Paleo, Keto, Whole30 and gluten-free. But don't worry, this is not a diet-only meal.
It makes a perfect to-go lunch or a light dinner for any foodie, and it's excellent for meal planning. But I'll tell you more about that in the tips and tricks below.
Moreover, I'll tell you how to adapt this Paleo tuna salad recipe to your taste and how to choose the best canned tuna.
So stick around if you want to make the best tuna salad recipe ever.
How to make avocado tuna salad - Best Tips & Tricks
1. What goes in tuna salad
I wanted to keep it healthy, fresh and simple so I made this Paleo tuna salad with avocado, chopped veggies, a drizzle of lemon juice and olive oil. But there are many other ingredients that would go well in this salad and here are some of my favorites:
quinoa
bulgur
pasta
corn
a mix of nuts and seeds
It's worth noting here that if you add the above ingredients it wouldn't be Keto, Paleo or Whole30 anymore. Nor gluten-free for that matter.
Now let's move on and see how to adapt this avocado tuna salad recipe to your taste.
2. How to adapt this recipe to your taste
If you don't stick to a certain diet, you can add any of the ingredients mentioned in the previous section. Furthermore, you can use any of your favorite chopped veggies and your favorite dressing. I recommend you try the dressing used in this pasta salad. I'm sure you'll love it.
And here are a few veggies that would go well in this healthy tuna salad (other than the ones I used):
Kale
Shredded carrot
Cabbage
Arugula
Cauliflower
Sweet potatoes
Radish
Broccoli
Beetroot
Apart from veggies, you could also add fruits like:
Strawberries
Grapes
Mango
Dried apricots
Pomegranate
Apples
Mandarins
And you can also add shrimp or crispy bacon to make it more filling.
3. How to meal plan with this Paleo tuna salad
Apart from being Keto, Paleo and Whole30, this easy tuna salad recipe is also perfect for meal planning. And the best way for that is in a mason jar.
Start by adding the liquids (lemon juice and oil), the avocado and then the rest of the ingredients. Make sure the salad leaves are the last ones that go inside the jar.
This way, the avocado will stay fresh and green because it's coated in lemon juice, and the salad leaves remain crisp and fresh because they won't get into contact with the liquid.
And whenever you're ready to serve this Paleo tuna salad, just shake the jar and serve right out of it. Or, you could toss everything in a bowl.
It's worth mentioning that it lasts up to 3 days in the fridge, although I am sure you'll gobble it up much sooner than that.
Now, I know many of you wonder if they can freeze tuna salad for meal planning, so I'll answer that in the next section.
4. Can you freeze tuna salad?
You can freeze tuna salad as long as it doesn't have any mayo, dressing, or chopped veggies in it. The mayo can separate and the veggies will end up mushy.
So basically you can only freeze it if it's very simple, like tuna, corn and cabbage. But otherwise, it's not a great idea.
And even though my healthy tuna salad has no mayo, I still don't recommend freezing it because you really don't need to. As I said, it takes 15 minutes to make tops, and it lasts up to 3 days.
Moreover, you'll be losing all that freshness and flavor which make it the best tuna salad in the world.
And that's it for today foodies. Those were all my tips and tricks for this easy tuna salad recipe.
