Tuna Salad With No Mayo

I can't have eggs or soy and have been trying to find a good tuna salad I can eat. Although I have come up with some that taste good, the tuna didn't hold together like I wanted it to.

Then I remembered how I made some stuffed shells using tuna and rice cheese and here's what I came up with!

1 single serve pouch of tuna, 3 slices of rice cheese (could use less), 2 green onions (chopped), 1 rib of celery (chopped), sprinkle of salt, pepper and parsley (chopped).

I put the tuna and cheese in a paper bowl. I used paper because I didn't want to have to clean up melted cheese from a washable bowl. But you could certainly use a regular bowl. I then broke up the cheese into little pieces with a fork and put the bowl in the microwave until the cheese melted. About 40 seconds. I then mixed in the other ingredients and chilled it.

This makes enough to stuff one tomato or a generous sandwich filling. It would also be good served hot on toast for a quick tuna melt.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
