Tuna and mayonnaise is a simple and versatile combination widely enjoyed in sandwiches, salads, and wraps. Typically made by mixing canned or fresh tuna with mayonnaise, this dish is popular in Western cuisine but has also found a place in international culinary traditions. Tuna is a lean protein source rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health. It also provides essential vitamins and minerals, like vitamin D and selenium. However, mayonnaise, primarily made from oil and egg yolk, is high in calories and fat, especially saturated fat, which can contribute to an imbalanced diet if consumed excessively. For a healthier version, opt for light or reduced-fat mayonnaise, or substitute with plain Greek yogurt. This flavorful pairing is a quick and satisfying option, making it a staple in many kitchens.
