Lemon Black Pepper Tuna Salad Recipe
Lemon Black Pepper Tuna Salad Recipe
"We love getting more seafood into our diet, and adding in tuna is a super easy way since it’s so readily available in cans.This tuna salad recipe is Paleo and Ketogenic (as well as low carb). It’s also AIP-friendly (follow the instructions in the recipe for AIP substitutions). (AIP stands for Paleo autoimmune protocol.) This recipe is super easy to make – it takes under 10 minutes from start to eat. So, it’s great for lunch or dinner or as a quick snack."

A simple salad, made with ordinary ingredients but packed with delicious flavors! It is also so quick to make that I kept wondering whether I had overlooked some ingredients. I used tinned tuna, as per the recipe, but now I have some fresh tuna so am going to try the salad again using the fresh fish!
