About Tuna meatballs

Tuna meatballs are a delicious and nutritious dish combining flaked tuna, breadcrumbs, eggs, herbs, and spices to create a flavorful alternative to traditional meat-based meatballs. Often inspired by Mediterranean or Italian cuisine, these savory bites can be baked, pan-fried, or simmered in tomato-based sauces, making them a versatile option for appetizers, pasta dishes, or rice bowls. Rich in lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids, tuna meatballs support heart health and muscle maintenance while being lower in saturated fats compared to red meat alternatives. Additional ingredients like garlic and parsley enhance the flavor while contributing antioxidants and vitamins. However, they can be higher in sodium depending on the recipe and the type of canned tuna used, so opting for low-sodium tuna and moderating added salt is recommended. Tuna meatballs are a wholesome, tasty choice for those looking to incorporate more seafood into their diet.
