Keto Tuna and Egg Salad Recipe – Easy Low Carb High Protein Lunch Ideas – Simple to prepare with tuna, hard boiled eggs and just a few more Ketogenic Diet friendly ingredients.
Keto Tuna and Egg Salad Recipe
I’ve long been a fan of tuna salad and egg salad. So, it was only a matter of time before the two combined into one super salad recipe – a Keto Tuna and Egg Salad.
The flavours work so incredibly well together, making a wonderous low carb and high protein dish. Perfect for when you really need to meet your protein macros but you just don’t know how.
How To Make Tuna and Egg Salad
Start by hard boiling some eggs. I prepare mine by covering some eggs with water in a small saucepan. Bringing them up to the boil, simmering for 10 minutes and then remove from the heat. Cool completely and you have the perfect hard boiled eggs.
Once you have your hard boiled eggs, peel a few (I used 4) and slice them up. An egg slicer makes this task really easy.
Place the eggs into a bowl, along with your tuna. I used a small tin of tuna. It’s up to you how you want your egg to tuna ratio to be and how many serves you’ll be making, whether you use a half or a whole small or large tin of tuna.
Chop the eggs and tuna together to form a chopped salad.
Top with the mayo and sour cream. I used 2 tablespoons of each, but you may want to use more or less depending on how big of a salad you’re making and how creamy you want it.
Combine together and then add your seasoning of choice. I went for salt and paprika, but you could also add pepper, mustard powder or any seasoning you like.
Give it a final stir through and refrigerate for a few hours for the flavours to develop. Enjoy as a salad or in lettuce cups or as a topping for a big green salad.
