Ultimate Dill Tuna Salad Low Carb Sandwich

by Amanda C. Hughes

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. If you love pickles as I do, you’ll love these simple sandwiches for a picnic or a bento work lunch.

I love 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 – hubby loved them too. It was crazy. So if you’re feeling leery of trying this out – I dare you!

Sounds delish! I would also try bread & butter style pickles, love them.

That wouldn’t be low carb tho if you used bread and butter! To much sugar!

It’s bread and butter PICKLES, not bread and butter.

Sounds great, how about some finely chopped celery for extra crunch?






Jess May 26, 2020 - 1:48 pm

I love celery in mine usually, but the pickle actually works great to give it that crunch.
