Couscous with tuna is a simple and nutritious dish combining small granules of steamed semolina wheat with protein-rich tuna, often either canned or freshly prepared. Originating from North African cuisine, couscous is widely embraced around the world for its versatility and light texture. This dish typically includes additional ingredients like olive oil, fresh vegetables such as tomatoes or cucumbers, and fragrant seasonings like parsley or lemon juice, enhancing its flavor and nutritional value. Couscous is a good source of carbohydrates and provides energy, while tuna contributes lean protein and essential omega-3 fatty acids that support heart and brain health. Low in saturated fats, this meal is relatively healthy, but the sodium content can vary substantially depending on the preparation, especially if canned tuna is used. Perfect for a balanced lunch or dinner, it satisfies hunger while delivering essential nutrients in a light, flavorful package.
