This Healthy Tuna Salad is a lighter take on creamy tuna salad. I make the dressing for this salad with ¾ Greek yogurt and ¼ mayo. I make mine even healthier by using avocado oil mayonnaise rather than the traditional vegetable oil version. This salad keeps well in the refrigerator for 5 days making it a great make ahead lunch.
Start by flaking the tuna in a large bowl. Add the remaining ingredients to the tuna and mix well until fully combined. Chill in the refrigerator until you are ready to eat the salad. This tastes delicious in a sandwich or served over lettuce leaves.
To make my version of Healthy Tuna Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
Transfer drained tuna to a large bowl and using a fork, separate into flakes.
Mix 2 small diced pickles, 1 large chopped celery rib, ¼ cup of minced red onion, 1 grated garlic clove, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, salt, pepper, ¾ cup of Greek yogurt and ¼ cup of mayo with the tuna. Stir well.
Place the salad in the refrigerator to chill.
Serve the tuna salad cold in a sandwich or over lettuce leaves.

Yum! I made this Healthy Tuna Salad for lunch with my friends last week and they loved it! It’s so fresh and light, plus it was super simple to whip up. I even added some chopped celery for a crunch. Definitely my go-to for meal prep now!
I tried this tuna salad for a picnic last weekend, and it was a hit! The lighter dressing made it so refreshing. My husband loved it in a sandwich. I’ll definitely make this again for busy week lunches!
Simply lovely salad
Superb! I whipped this up for a picnic and my kids couldn't get enough! We even used it in wraps. It made our day so yummy and healthy!
Ho provato questa insalata di tonno e la trovo meravigliosa. È davvero leggera, perfetta per il pranzo. La preparai per un picnic con mio marito e i nostri bambini, e tutti la adorarono. La prossima volta proverò a servirla anche in un panino. Grazie per questa ricetta semplice e deliziosa.
Delicious and healthy!
Superb taste!
I just made this Healthy Tuna Salad for lunch today and it was fantastic. I used greek yogurt and a touch of avocado mayo just like the recipe said. My husband loved it so much he asked for seconds. This will be our new go-to lunch for sure.
OMG, this Healthy Tuna Salad is so delish! I made it for lunch all week. Using Greek yogurt made it feel guilt-free! I even added some cherry tomatoes from my garden, super yummy!
Very messy tuna salad but was tasty, greek yougurt is a bit too expensive for me where I live so I don't know when I'll be making this again but loved recipe so saving it.
My husband absolutely loves when I make this, he eats the entire thing 10 minutes after I finish making it.
Tuna is really good but the bread was too hard for this snack so I used a crossiant instead and was purrrfection.
Very delicious the tuna, yogurt and mayonaise mix together better than I expected, bookmarked this recipe just because of it.
Loving this snack, best healthy tuna salad I've ever tasted!
Despite the small portion it's very filling and taste brilliant, going to be making this again and every time I want some yummy tuna.
