Notes

  • The nutrition info is only for the tuna salad. Berries and veggies are not included. 
  • I use tuna packed in water for this tuna salad but you can use tuna packed in oil if that's all you have on hand.
  • Make sure the celery, bell pepper, and onions are finely diced so they blend nicely into the tuna.
  • Red bell peppers are preferred as they're the sweetest. 
  • To store: Store the tuna salad in the fridge for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
