Fish-free Tuna Salad

Before becoming vegan, tuna salad was one of our favorite quick meals. My daughter absolutely loved it. After becoming vegan I started making vegan tuna salad, but it still was not the same. Don't get me wrong. The chickpea tunaless salad did the job, but then along came fish-free tuna by Good Catch™ Foods, and the rest is history!

When I opened the pouch to begin making my tuna salad I was amazed by the taste and texture of the tuna. It has the chunky albacore taste and texture without the cruelty! What cruelty? Many people don't think about the cruelty that's involved in the fishing industry. PETA has compiled a very good list regarding tuna.  Besides being absolutely tasty, this tuna has 14 grams of protein per serving and is made with a six-plant protein blend.

To make the perfect sandwich you have to have the right bread, and I think I've found it. Sometimes when I look at labels for "healthy" foods I am amazed at the number of ingredients in some products. This bread only contains four: Freshly Stone Milled Whole Grain Sprouted Spelt Flour, Filtered Water, Freshly Stone Milled Whole Grain Spelt Flour and Sea Salt. That's it!

It's alkaline, a great source of fiber, non-GMO, and made with spelt gluten which is naturally more water soluble that wheat gluten and easier for the body to break down. On top of all that it's absolutely delicious. It's made by Berlin Natural Bakery. 

Protein-rich, filling, chunky, creamy, and only six ingredients!
