Cup of Tuna Salad is a versatile and protein-packed dish, popular in various cuisines but especially well-loved in Mediterranean and American traditions. Typically made with flaked tuna, mayonnaise, and a medley of diced veggies like celery, onions, and pickles, this salad offers a balance of creamy and savory flavors. Some variations include hard-boiled eggs or seasonings like dill and mustard for added depth. Rich in lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids from the tuna, it supports heart health and muscle function. The inclusion of vegetables adds fiber and essential vitamins. However, the calorie count and fat content may increase depending on the amount of mayonnaise used, so lighter dressing alternatives can be an option. Served on its own, with crackers, or as a sandwich filling, Cup of Tuna Salad is a nutritious, convenient choice for a snack or meal.
