Tuna pastry is a savory baked dish featuring flaky puff pastry filled with a mixture of tuna, often combined with ingredients like mayonnaise, cream cheese, or béchamel for creaminess, and additional seasonings such as garlic, onions, parsley, or paprika to enhance flavor. Sometimes, vegetables like spinach or bell peppers are incorporated for extra texture and nutrients. Popular in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, tuna pastries combine indulgent richness with a dose of protein from the fish. Tuna is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for heart and brain health, while the pastry adds energy-dense carbohydrates. However, the puff pastry’s high butter content makes this a treat best enjoyed in moderation due to its saturated fat content. A balanced serving can complement a well-rounded diet, especially when paired with fresh salads for added fiber and vitamins.
