Meet my new favorite lunch! Meal Prep Hummus Tuna! I mixed my two favorite foods and got the BEST new recipe. I can’t stop eating it and I love the fact that it takes minutes to prep. Honestly, I think those recipes are the best kind for everyday use.

Sorry, Julia Child. I’m not up for spending hours in the kitchen preparing a meal. No matter how much I love to cook, you will never find me doing that!

Funny thing is, I used to hate tuna. HATE!!! As in, avoided it like the plague until a few years ago. Then during my 80 pound weight loss I somehow one day got the courage to try it. After years of avoiding tuna, you know what I realized? That I loved tuna!

The reason I thought I hated it was because my Mom used to make tuna salad with mayo and peas when I was a kid. It was the mayo that made my stomach do flip flops, not the tuna!?! To this day, I’m still not about the mayo.

So, yes now I love tuna but it is a bland food. It’s like chicken. You can only eat so much plain chicken breast, or in this case, tuna before you get bored. All it needs is a little dressing up to make it taste like something brand new. This Meal Prep Hummus Tuna does just that!

I used regular humus for mine, but you can pick any flavor you love and mix it with the tuna. For a Paleo version, this no bean hummus is my go to. I added tomatoes and cucumber for a real mediterranean feel. It gives the salad more substance and taste. I also added coriander and parsley. The coriander really brings out the flavor of the hummus!

Enjoy this Meal Prep Hummus Tuna Salad on butter lettuce, kale, in a gluten free wrap or bread. To keep the lettuce fresh, I use produce saver sheets. They are AMAZING. Lettuce lasts so much longer with them. Trust me!

    I used to be the same way about tuna! I couldn’t stand the stuff and didn’t even like being around someone who was eating it. Then a few years ago I was traveling with some friends and we were on a hike where the only lunch option was tuna sandwiches. I reluctantly took a bite and realized that it was not bad. And with each bite I liked it a little more! By the last bite of the sandwich I was officially a tuna lover! Now I eat tuna all the time, definitely at least once a week. This recipe looks INCREDIBLE and from one tuna convert to another, I can tell you that I can’t wait to try it! 🙂

      That is awesome Lauren! I’m so happy I’m not the only one who discovered this. I think this can be true of so many foods too. People have a preconceived belief that they “don’t like something” then they try it and realize they do. Hope you like the recipe!

    I do this with basically everything – salmon, shredded chicken, tuna. I could live on hummus, no joke. Love the coriander add!

      It’s a simple combo that a lot of people don’t think about. Love the salmon idea!

    This was amazing! The only ingredients I had were red pepper hummus and tuna, so that’s what I used. SO good and very easy!

    This is my Holy Grail of lunch meal prep recipes – quick to prep for the week, reasonable number of ingredients, low cost, hits my nutrient goals, stupidly easy to actually get onto my plate at lunchtime, satisfies me for the meal and DELICIOUS.
