Over the past few months, I have been focusing on feeding my family a Paleo Diet that is primarily focused on coconut milk instead of dairy. This Paleo Creamed Tuna on Toast recipe is made with coconut flour, coconut milk, and ghee, and tastes amazing! My husband smiled and ate the whole thing! That is when I know I made something good! Today, we are working with Blue Harbor on this sponsored post to bring you an amazing Paleo Cream Tuna on Toast recipe. You can learn all about how to eat paleo here.
In this yummy cream of tuna on toast recipe, I used the Blue Harbor because it is a clean-living, sustainability-conscious brand of tuna. Find out where to buy Blue Harbor here. Also, Blue Harbor Tuna is available at your local Publix store. Woot Woot!
I love not having to cook every meal from scratch. The best part is that you can still eat clean without having to spend hours in the kitchen.
Is Tuna Paleo?
Blue Harbor is Whole 30 compliant and allowed on the Paleo diet because it is soy free, gluten free, wild caught, and dolphin safe.
Blue Harbor Fish Co.
The Blue Harbor Fish Co. has premium, simple “clean” ingredients that contain wild Albacore tuna, water, and a touch of sea salt (as well as no salt options). Their tuna is wild, line-caught premium quality fish and offers a delicious, mild, clean flavor. Blue Harbor is MSC Certified, and therefore complies with sustainable practices and ensures each fish is traceable back to the boat. (MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) is an international non-profit organization established to address the issue of unsustainable fishing and to safeguard seafood supplies for the future.)

Notes

What a great idea to serve it in phyllo cups, they would make a great appetizer for a party!
This sounds like such a delicious option for lunches and I love that little bit of cayenne pepper added in! I have not tried Blue Harbor Tuna but now I’m going to have to! Sounds like such a great brand!
I’m considering going paleo and looking at recipes to see how I’d be eating. I am allergic to coconut. What would be the best substitute, both in oil and flour? Also gluten sensitive. Thanks!
