Tuna Mayo Salad [Easy Lunch]
Another easy lunch! Is it weird that I get excited to eat lunch every day?
This recipe is a light and fresh salad that can be made in ten minutes and will keep you full and feeling great for the afternoon. It’s a typical midweek lunch for me when I want something simple yet still delicious.
It’s also low carb and keto-friendly. Although I’m not crazy strict about my diet, I find when I eat this way, I have a lot more energy and focus, which is why I turn to this recipe for lunch when I’m in the middle of a long work day getting stuff done.
