Whole30 Paleo Tuna Salad

This Whole30 Paleo Tuna Salad is a quick and easy recipe that's perfect for a healthy lunch or snack. It's made with just a few simple ingredients, including tuna, mayonnaise, celery, red onion, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

Tuna salad has been a staple in American cuisine for over a century, and for good reason. It's a quick and easy dish to make, it's relatively inexpensive, and it's a good source of protein and healthy fats. However, traditional tuna salad recipes often contain ingredients that are not Whole30 or Paleo compliant, such as bread crumbs, sugar, and processed mayonnaise.

Ingredients

• 1 can (5 ounces) tuna, drained

• 1/4 cup chopped celery
• 1/4 cup chopped red onion

• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, combine the tuna, mayonnaise, celery, red onion, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

Why It Works

• The mayonnaise adds richness and creaminess to the salad, while the celery and red onion add crunch and flavor.

• The salt and pepper help to enhance the flavors of the other ingredients.
