Description

This quick and easy Spicy Tuna Salad is love at first bite! It hits all the right umami-spicy-creamy notes and is packed with protein from canned tuna, edamame, and Greek yogurt. It's the kind of no-cook lunch that actually keeps you satisfied for hours (yes, please!). Scoop it up with roasted seaweed, cucumber slices, or crackers.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 1 1/2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 tbsp sriracha
  • 1 tbsp reduced sodium soy sauce (sub tamari for gluten free and start with 2 tsp)
  • 1/2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 2 5oz cans tuna in water, very well-drained
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions (I use both white and green parts)
  • 1/2 cup shelled edamame (cooked according to package, I use thawed from frozen)

Instructions

  1. Add Greek yogurt, mayo, sriracha, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, and honey to a medium mixing bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Drain tuna very well, being sure to remove all water, then add to mixing bowl. Use a fork to flake the tuna and mix into the yogurt mixture.
  3. Add celery, green onions, and edamame. Mix to combine. I like to garnish with toasted sesame seeds! Serve with roasted seaweed snacks, crackers, sliced cucumbers, or in a rice bowl. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
