Keto Tuna Plate

19 ratings

I get craving for tuna often and this tuna plate does the trick for me. I love the combo of the mayo, lemon and fresh dill to brighten everything. The lemon is optional, as I know some keto followers do not eat citrus. However, I like to squeeze the lemon over the greens and tuna. The plate is finished off with a nice, green salad on the side.

    Delicious and healthy. I used spinach instead of kale. The dilled mayo gave the tuna a nice twist!

      I despise kale. Will use baby arugula.

        I don't like Kale can I switch it to salad greens instead?

                    May I substitute the Kale with Spinach or something? I am not really fan of Kale.

                      I mixed this into a salad instead and it was delicious!

                        New to keto. Just not a huge fan of kale. Like at all. I may substitute with spinach in the future. The flavors were super delicious otherwise! Only rating this one star for myself since there’s no other way to dislike recipes on the app.

                          Perfect! I made a dressing out of the olive oil, mayo and lemon, chopped up the egg and made a big salad of it all. Delicious and filling. Will be making this again.

                          The dill made my taste buds go crazy. It's satisfying and filling. I'm not a fast eater, but this dish didn't stand a chance. The dill and lemon WINNING!

                            This looks absolutely fantastic, perfect light lunch. What can you use in place of the fresh dill?

                              Fresh dill is too perishable and expensive. Only usedried dill weed in our house. Just as good.

                              I use freeze dried or organic dill that comes in a jar from the seasoning aisle.

                            A classic - you can’t go wrong. I mixed the mayo and dill with the tuna to make it a tuna salad. Yumm!
