I know that I normally don’t share recipes with you all and that’s mainly because frankly I am a terrible cook. I’ve shared numerous meal delivery services because I love utilizing them but as my diet has changed and I’m trying to eat low-carb and stick to a close to Keto diet, I’ve had to start experimenting more in the kitchen. After finally having a win of a dinner the other night with these Keto tuna melts, I thought it best I share this recipe with you all!
First off, let me say that while this follows Keto, I wouldn’t recommend this for a meal by itself. Actually, I take that back. I would for breakfast! This makes a great breakfast bite especially if you’re the type that likes to grab and go. It has protein and fat, both of which are needed on a Keto diet, and are good for you, but it is lacking any greens. So, to round out our dinner we enjoyed our Keto Tuna Melts with a green salad I mixed together with kale and arugula, cherry tomatoes, celery, pistachios, and avocado. I personally like to have well rounded meals, of which always include veggies and/or a salad. It makes me feel better when I’m eating all (or mostly all) the colors in the rainbow 🌈
Keto Tuna Melts
What you’ll need:
2 cans of tuna (I prefer in water and no salt added)
4 eggs
1 cup vegan mayo
1 cup cream cheese
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
garlic salt and pepper to your liking
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350
Step 2: Mix the eggs, mayo, and cream cheese into a medium size bowl with a handheld mixer.
Step 3: Add in the two cans of tuna, shredded cheese, and garlic salt and pepper to taste. Mix together with a spoon until its mixed evenly.
Step 4: Take a 12 count muffin tin and grease it lightly.
Step 5: Spoon in the mixture into all 12 muffin spots. They should fill in about 2/3 of the way to the top.
Step 6: Bake in oven for 15 minutes.
Step 7: Take Keto Tuna Melts out of the oven. Let sit for a few minutes then scoop out and plate.
Step 8: Enjoy with your family because EVERYONE, even your picky eaters are going to LOVE these!
If you try this recipe out, I’d love for you to let me know and tell me how you and the family liked it!
As always, thank you so much for stopping by the blog today! I hope you enjoyed this post/recipe!!
