Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 5-ounce cans Wild-caught tuna (canned in water, no added oils or soy)
- 3 tablespoons Whole30-compliant mayonnaise
- 1.5 teaspoons Sriracha or hot sauce (Whole30-compliant, no sugar)
- 2 stalks Green onion (thinly sliced)
- 0.5 medium Red bell pepper (finely diced)
- 1 medium Cucumber (optional, for serving)
- 6 leaves Lettuce leaves (optional, for serving)
- 0.25 teaspoons Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
Instructions
Drain and flake the canned tuna into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Add the Whole30-compliant mayonnaise, sriracha or hot sauce, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir well to combine.
Gently fold in the green onion and diced red bell pepper to add a fresh crunch.
Taste and adjust the spiciness or seasoning as desired. Add more hot sauce for extra heat, if preferred.
If serving with cucumber, slice it into thin rounds to use as a base or dip. Alternatively, spoon the spicy tuna onto lettuce leaves for fresh, crunchy wraps.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 2 days for later use. Enjoy!
