Lisa Christian
Loved the addition of lime juice. One thing to point out is that cans of tuna are only 5 oz. and not 6 oz. As written this was way too runny. Next time I’ll cut the mayo in half. Easy fix.
Jared Hahn
I didn’t even add the salt and pepper, and it was great.
David Rich
Amazing tuna salad. Loved it. I followed the recipe exactly. Certainly was not disappointed
Connor Jones
Really good, especially considering it meets low-carb guidelines. It needs a little something, but I have yet to figure out what.
David Wolfe
Taste great, but what does one serving equal too?
Ashley Kirby
I made it and added for vegetables, chopped green and yellow peppers. It was excellent and the family loved it, and will not eat it any other way. Great way to included more veggies.
Jaclyn Miller
I added a few things though. I like spicy so I added a little bit of cayenne pepper along with a chopped jalapeno pepper. I also added 1 chopped boiled egg. Very delicious, thanks.
Virginia Barron
Didn’t need to make any changes to this recipe. The best tuna we ever had and its low carb.
Shannon Smith
I have never been a tuna fan. If I had known it could taste like this, I would’ve eaten it sooner! Delicious! I used Dijon mustard instead of regular and added paprika.
Shane Moore
This is very good. If I want to make it just a little better, but non-keto, I add a couple of tablespoons of sweet pickle relish. Otherwise I make it exactly as the recipe calls for and people seem to really like it.

A yummy Keto tuna salad
Jeffrey Gutierrez
I decided to try this Keto Tuna Salad, and this stuff is perfect! The flavors just come together wonderfully. I was afraid to try this tuna recipe because my tuna salad is simply tuna and mayo mixed, but this stuff is delicious!! Thank you for sharing this recipe!!

I made this for my husband’s work lunch. I did not use the tuna with olive oil or the olive oil mayo. I did put in a tablespoon of olive oil in the mix. I also replaced the red onion with green onion. I added a half boiled egg on top with paprika for garnish, like my mother always did. This was delicious and light. We love it
Julie Calderon
I added diced boiled eggs, used a little celery salt since I didn’t have celery available, and added a few tablespoons of my keto friendly sugar alternative and it was DELICIOUS!!!! I usually eat tuna with crackers, but since I’m doing Keto, I used plain pork rinds as a dipper. Easy, quick, and delicious!
Sean Thomas
I halved the recipe, used Dijon mustard instead of yellow mustard, and used regular mayo instead of light. Tastier than I expected! Bonus I generally have all ingredients in hand. Frozen, finely diced red onion added straight from the freezer since this is for tomorrow’s lunch. Bet it’s even tastier tomorrow! 5 stars for simplicity while being surprisingly yummy.
Melissa Turner
I made this exactly as written and it was delicious! Perfect for those on a keto diet.
Sarah Bush
Love this! And love adding chopped raw spinach. Also added a teaspoon of dijon mustard. Divine.
Laura Schneider
I skipped the lime juice and added raw spinach and a small amount of green bell peppers. Delicious!
Katherine Johnson
Quick fast and tasty. A difficult meal to mess up, as the needed quantity of ingredients aren’t so specific that it will diminish or excel the dish that drastically. If you can remember the needed ingredients, you can almost always make a delish tuna salad by just throwing it in together. I was surprised at how the lime juice livened up the dish quite a bit.
Lisa Weiss
It tasted great! I’ll be making this again.
Mr. Charles Harris
Really good but just a little tangy. I’m used to adding sugar but being keto no sugar allowed. will make again.
