About

This twist on a classic tuna mayonnaise is packed with flavor and Keto-friendly fats. Our low carb tuna mayo is prepared with canned tuna, creamy mayonnaise, fresh avocado, tangy lime juice, aromatic scallions, and fresh cilantro. This makes a delicious low carb salad topping or spread for Keto toasted bread.

Can I Use a Different Fish?

We have used canned, flaked tuna for this Keto lunch recipe. If preferred, you may substitute the tuna with canned salmon in the same quantities. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the original recipe.

What Kind of Mayonnaise Should I Use?

We have used a sugar-free store-bought mayo for this Keto fish recipe. You may use any Keto-friendly mayonnaise you prefer, either store-bought or homemade. If you would like to make your own mayonnaise from scratch, we have an easy-to-follow recipe for homemade Keto mayonnaise in our sides section.
