It’s the holidays! Yay! Buuut with all the fun comes a lot of eating ~ and lots of that eating isn’t so good for you! Ugh! So this week (after stuffing myself last week at Thanksgiving!) I wanted to try & eat a little healthier, lighter & fresher! :) So I decided to make one of my favorite healthy lunch recipes ~ an easy tuna salad. I’ve made this recipe for a long time, & it’s a keeper! This time I did try something new though ~ Ocean Naturals canned tuna. It’s yummy, good for you & good for the planet. You can even learn where your specific can of tuna came from by visiting their site and entering the code on the can. Pretty cool, huh? ;) So keep reading to get this naturally delicious recipe. ;)

You can find this tuna at Walmart with all the other tuna brands. So look for it there! I love that this tuna is so good for you. I love that I can pronounce & recognize every ingredient on the can, too. Yay! It’s also low in fat, contains high-quality protein and Omega 3 fatty acids! Yes, that’s my kind of snack! ha! ;)

While your tuna salad is in the refrigerator chilling, you can get 4-6 tomatoes & hollow them out leaving 1/4 to 1/8 inch or so of the shell. This step is totally optional though! I know not everyone likes tomatoes. :) This tuna salad also taste great on croissants or in a sandwich. You can also just serve this tuna salad on lettuce leaves.
