Ingredients
- 10 oz solid white albacore tuna in water and drained, two cans
- 4 large Eggs hard boiled, click for Air Fryer Hard Boiled Eggs tutorial
- ¾ cup dill pickles diced small - this is about 4 spears
- ¼ tsp celery seeds
- ¼ tsp Garlic Powder
- ½ tsp Black Pepper
- ¼ cup Red Onion diced thinly
- ¼ tsp Smoked Paprika
- 1 tsp Granular Sweetener
- ½ tsp Natural Ancient Sea Salt you can start with ¼ tsp and add more to taste
- 1/4 cup Mayonnaise you can start with 1/4 cup and add more to taste for additional creaminess
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to a bowl and mix well
- Serve with a lettuce wrap, keto bread, or with chopped vegetables
Notes
- Drain the tuna well: This keeps the tuna salad thick instead of watery.
- Start with less mayo: Add more as needed until it reaches your preferred texture.
- Use albacore for more bite: It has larger, firmer pieces than chunk light tuna.
- Adjust the relish flavor: Add more chopped pickle and a tiny bit more sweetener if you want a sweeter, tangier tuna salad.
- Serve it different ways: make a keto tuna salad wrap with lettuce, scoop it with cucumbers or celery, or serve it on a toasted keto bagel.
- Store leftovers: Keep this low carb tuna salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3–4 days.
