Categories     Salads

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 (5 oz) cans wild-caught tuna in olive oil
3 Tbsp homemade mayo (or store-bought mayo)
2″ piece of fresh ginger, minced
1 medium carrot, grated
2 scallions, sliced into thin rings
1 Tbsp gluten-free tamari
1/4 tsp chili powder
Pinch ground cayenne, add more to taste
1 tsp sesame oil
1 Tbsp sesame seeds
1/4 cup dried cranberries

Steps:

  • Combine the first 5 ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir to combine.
  • Next add the tamari, chili powder, cayenne, and sesame oil to taste. Sometimes I like it spicier, sometimes I like more salt, etc.
  • Finally, add the cranberries and sesame seeds and serve.
  • I like to eat it on a bed of lettuce or in individual romaine leaves like a tuna salad burrito. My favorite way to serve it is on top of lettuce, but you can also serve it with your favorite gluten-free bread.
