STATS:

Cuisine: American
Course: Salad, main course
Yield: Serves 4
Diet: Keto
Time in total: Ten minutes

EQUIPMENT:

A knife
Big mixing container, 2

INGREDIENT NOTES:

TUNA:
We are using a mix of solid white & chunky light tuna (canned). It blends the taste perfectly. You are free to choose any one of the canned tunas.

MUSTARD:
You may choose any mustard here, whether it is simple or Dijon mustard.

VEGGIES:

Wash & dry the veggies. Then chop them into little pieces (mince-sized). The more finely chopped veggies will be able to distribute evenly into the whole salad.

MAYONNAISE:
The keto mayonnaise (commercial or homemade) will include creamy richness in our salad. We can swap the mayonnaise with Greek Yogurt if we want to.

TIPS:

You need to have the hardboiled eggs here. Be careful they aren’t overboiled, as they become too dry & don’t taste best.
The trick to boil them perfectly is to remove them from the boiling water after 8/9 minutes. Next, put them in an ice-chilled, water-filled pot to save them from overcooking.

If you see your salad is extra thick, then thin it using oil of olives/juice of lemon.

Keep your salad set in the refrigerator for 0.5 hours before serving. So that all the flavors mix well & give you the classical taste.

STORAGE INFORMATION:

FREEZER:
We don’t recommend freezing here. The mayo in the salad & eggs is not appropriate for freezing.

FRIDGE:
Shift the salad (Tuna with egg) in a locked container. Enjoy it while keeping it in the fridge for 7/8 days.

The salad can’t remain out of the fridge for more than 120 minutes.

FAQs:

Is there any substitute if we don’t have mayonnaise available?
Sure, you can also use Greek yogurt in place of mayonnaise. It would add the same great creamy richness to your salad.

What trick should we use to avoid the mushy salad?
If you want the mini solid chunks of eggs & tuna in your salad, then fold these into the dressing with gentle hands. Otherwise, the overmixing will make a paste-like salad.

Why is chopping the fine vegetables essential?
As the big chunks of fish, eggs, or veggies will not go evenly in the salad. The problem will be solved if you chop the veggies into the little, fine pieces.
