Low Carb Sandwich #8: Ultimate Dill Tuna Salad
 Have you heard? I have a new book coming out that I authored with Rachel Gregory, a board-certified Nutrition Specialist, Athletic Trainer and Strength and Conditioning Coach. It's called the 21-Day Ketogenic Diet Weight Loss Challenge: Recipes and Workouts for a Slimmer, Healthier You and it's available for pre-order now. |
I love, love, love tuna salad. And my nickname is Pickles, so you can probably guess that I love, love, love pickles. And the fact that both are keto-friendly is just wonderful. I’m also a huge fan of spicing up tuna salad with different treats, like lemon and pepper, or in today’s case: dill. When I was coming up with this little dill tuna salad, I wasn’t sure it would work but I figured that pickles always taste great on a tuna sandwich, so why wouldn’t they taste great as the bun?
Well, they do! And no, it’s not just me – P loved them too. It was crazy. So if you’re feeling leery of trying this out – I dare you!
The Ultimate Dill Tuna Salad Sandwich
- 1 can tuna (your preference – I like the solid white)
- 3 tbsp mayo
- 1 pinch of dried dill (fresh dill would be nice too – you may need more)
- salt and pepper to taste
- hamburger dills, or any dill that’s sliced the long way
Combine all of these ingredients (except pickles) to taste, then let the tuna salad sit in the fridge for about 15-30 minutes (or overnight).
Get yourself some long sliced dills. I could only find the hamburger chips this time around, so I went with those, but I prefer the refrigerated dills from the deli.
You may need to shake them off a bit, but I found the structure to be much less messy than I thought it would be.
Voila! Try these out and let me know what you think!
