About Classic tuna sandwich

The Classic Tuna Sandwich is a timeless favorite made with flaky tuna, usually mixed with mayonnaise, and lightly seasoned with salt and pepper. It often includes crunchy elements like celery or onion and is served between slices of bread, sometimes with lettuce or tomato for added freshness. Originating in the United States as an easy-to-make lunch option, this sandwich has become a versatile staple worldwide. Tuna is an excellent source of lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health. However, the mayonnaise base can add saturated fat and calories, so opting for a lighter mayonnaise or greek yogurt alternative can make it a healthier choice. Pairing it with whole-grain bread boosts fiber content, making it a satisfying and balanced meal.
