Greek Tuna Salad

Greek Tuna Salad is an exquisite medley of flavors that promises a delightful burst of Mediterranean goodness. Begin with canned tuna or salmon, offering a protein-rich foundation for this vibrant salad.

Combine the savory notes of avocado oil mayo or Greek yogurt with the zesty touch of freshly squeezed lemon juice, creating a creamy and refreshing dressing. Incorporate crisp cucumber slices, chopped red onion, capers, artichokes, roasted red bell peppers, and banana peppers for a symphony of textures and tastes.

The ensemble is elevated with the salty allure of feta cheese and a sprinkle of pepper. A finishing touch of red wine vinegar ties all the elements together, creating a harmonious blend that captures the essence of Greek cuisine.

Indulge in the flavors of the Mediterranean with our Greek Tuna Salad, a satisfying dish that effortlessly combines simplicity with sophistication.

INGREDIENTS

  • 3-4 tuna or salmon, canned

  • 1/3 c avocado oil mayo or Greek yogurt

  • 1 lemon, juiced

  • 1/2 cucumber, sliced

  • 1/2 red onion, chopped

  • 2 T jarred capers

  • 1/3 c jarred artichokes, chopped (in water not oil)

  • 1/3 c jarred roasted red bell peppers, chopped

  • 1/3 c banana peppers, chopped

  • 1/4 c feta cheese

  • 1/2 tsp pepper

  • 2 T red wine vinegar

    STEPS

  1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir well. Love this one on a heated wrap or toast as a tuna melt with cheese for a fat source.

    Notes: If not a fish fan, chicken works great with this one too. When using tuna, try to not drain the liquid in the tuna can if it doesn’t gross you out. That’s where all the omega-3s are! And if you buy the salmon in smaller cans, it tastes the same as tuna if you want a change-up. Warning, don’t buy canned salmon in a large 16 oz. can unless you’re cool with handling bones and skin. You’re welcome, ha!
