About Tuna sandwich

A tuna sandwich is a popular meal option made by combining canned or fresh tuna with ingredients like mayonnaise, celery, onions, or pickles, then layering the mixture between slices of bread. Sometimes, lettuce, tomato, or other toppings are added for texture and flavor. Originating from American cuisine, it became widely embraced for its convenience and taste. Tuna is a rich source of lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential nutrients like selenium and vitamin D, making the sandwich a nutritious choice. However, depending on the type and amount of mayonnaise used, it can increase calorie and fat content. Opting for whole grain bread and lighter, healthier alternatives like Greek yogurt as a binder can improve its nutritional profile. Versatile and satisfying, the tuna sandwich delivers a balanced mix of energy and flavor, perfect for lunch or a quick meal.
