The Best Ways To Make Salad with Keto Tuna

  • In an airtight container, preserve your tuna salad in the fridge for 3-5 days. This makes it ideal for meal prep for the entire week!
  • Avoid light, fat-free, reduced-fat, or sweetened mayonnaises while on the keto diet. These will all be lower in fat and higher in carbohydrates than conventional mayo, making them unsuitable. You can add avocado or olive oil mayonnaise, but make sure the flavor isn’t overpowering and leaves a strange aftertaste in the tuna salad.
