Tuna salad is a classic for a good reason. Not only is it flavorful and easy to make, tuna fish is also rich in protein and contains omega-3 fatty acids essential to the body. While the traditional tuna-mayo-celery trio is delicious, you can add even more flavor (and nutrients) with chickpeas. Also known as garbanzo beans, they are gluten-free and a great way to add a little crunch to your salad.
Toss the whole thing in your favorite Primal Kitchen Buffalo Sauce and you have a savory salad that works equally well atop fresh lettuce leaves or grain-free bread. Store any leftover tuna salad separately from other ingredients. Our Buffalo tuna salad is good for 3-5 days if stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
