    My favorite non mayo topping for tuna is aged balsamic vinegar. A good 15 year balsamic on tuna is amazing.

    I use hummus...probably has carbs though. But yeah, I use hummus, mustard, and sriracha. Could use greek yogurt.

    Instead of Mayo I use Opa Greek Yogurt Feta Dill Dressing and place it on red pepper slices. LOVE IT!

    Mix it with a dab of olive oil, lemon juice and fresh basil. Very yummy.

    I get the tuna packets packed in water only. I eat them "as is".

    My favorite way is super simple:

    1 can tuna
    1/2 avocado
    1 roma tomato
    Squeeze of lemon
    Salt and pepper to taste

    The avocado gives it the same creamyness without the mayo. I like to have this with a green salad and balsamic dressing.

    ^^ This!! It tastes great and so easy to thow together!

    Today's lunch is a can of tuna mixed with mango salsa & a little red onion stuffed into a low carb pita. 9 carbs (or 7 net) without the pita, 24 (or 13 net) with it.
