Tuna Spinach Salad with Lemon and Olive Oil (AIP, GAPS, SCD, Paleo)

Tuna and Spinach Salad Recipe

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 810 oz. spinach, washed and trimmed of stems
  • 3 cans albacore tuna, drained (Wild Planet brand has low mercury content and it’s packed in steel cans)
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • 12 lemons
  • sea salt
  • garlic powder (just a pinch or two)

Instructions

  1. Place spinach in a medium bowl or a large bowl if making a bigger batch.
  2. Add drained tuna.
  3. Pour olive oil all over – coat well.
  4. Squeeze lemons (start with one) onto salad. Sprinkle with garlic powder and a pinch of salt to your liking. Give a toss with tongs to mix completely. Taste and adjust the lemon and seasonings.
  5. TIP: If you think you’ll have leftovers, only salt individual portions as salting will wilt the spinach. I think it tastes even better after marinating awhile.
