About Tuna sandwich with mayonnaise

The tuna sandwich with mayonnaise is a classic, versatile dish popular in Western cuisine, particularly in American and British lunch menus. It typically consists of canned tuna mixed with creamy mayonnaise, often enhanced with ingredients like celery, onion, or pickles for added crunch and flavor. This mixture is usually served between slices of bread or on a roll, sometimes accompanied by lettuce or tomato. Tuna is a lean source of protein and rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health and brain function. It also provides essential vitamins and minerals like vitamin D, selenium, and potassium. However, the addition of mayonnaise increases the calorie and fat content, particularly saturated fats, which may not fit into every diet. Opting for whole-grain bread and lighter mayo alternatives can boost its nutritional value. The tuna sandwich is a satisfying, convenient meal option with room for personalization.
