FAQ
Is this salad gut-friendly?
Yes—it's light, with fiber from tomatoes and protein from tuna, and a simple dressing that won't weigh you down.
What tomatoes work best?
Ripe, juicy tomatoes; any common variety will do.
Can I make it vegan or vegetarian?
Yes—substitute tuna with chickpeas or white beans, or omit tuna for a plant-based version.
Can I prepare it in advance?
Yes—prep the components ahead, store separately, and add dressing and mix just before serving.
How long does it take to make?
About 15–20 minutes.
How should I store leftovers?
Refrigerate in an airtight container for 1–2 days.
