Ingredients
- For the Paleo Tuna Salad:
- 2 cups white albacore tuna
- ½ teaspoon dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon diced pickled jalapeños in the jar, drained
- ½ teaspoon celery seed
- 5 tablespoon Paleo mayonnaise or to your personal taste
- 2 tablespoon finely diced red onion
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ cup finely diced celery
- ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
- For the Lemon Kale:
- 1 bunch kale cleaned and hard stems removed
- 1-2 lemons juiced
- 2 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Serve over kale greens or in a lettuce leaf large enough to wrap up and eat.
- Toss fresh kale leaves (remove hard stems) with freshly squeezed lemon juice and olive oil to taste. I am generous on the seasoning for this, because I love lots of lemon!
- Sprinkle with sea salt and serve.
