Tuna Salad with Red Onions is a flavorful dish combining tender tuna chunks with crisp, tangy red onions. This simple yet satisfying salad often features mayonnaise, lemon juice, olive oil, or Greek yogurt for creaminess, along with optional ingredients like celery, mustard, or fresh herbs for added texture and depth. Originating as a versatile, high-protein staple in Western cuisine, it is often served as a sandwich filling, on crackers, or alongside greens. Packed with lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids from the tuna, this dish supports heart health and muscle maintenance. Red onions provide antioxidants and a hint of natural sweetness, while lighter versions made with Greek yogurt or olive oil enhance its nutritional value. However, versions high in mayonnaise or salt may contribute to higher calorie and sodium content, making moderation key. Tuna Salad with Red Onions is a satisfying and adaptable choice for any meal.
