Tuna Veggie Salad is a refreshing, protein-packed dish inspired by Mediterranean cuisine, blending vibrant vegetables with lean tuna for a nutrient-rich meal or side. This salad typically features flaky, canned or freshly cooked tuna, crisp cucumber, juicy tomatoes, crunchy bell peppers, red onion, and leafy greens like spinach or arugula, all tossed in a light vinaigrette or olive oil dressing. Some variations may include chickpeas, olives, or herbs for added flavor and texture. Its health benefits stem from the high-quality protein of tuna, omega-3 fatty acids that support heart health and brain function, and the abundance of vitamins and antioxidants in the vegetables. Low in unhealthy fats and high in nutrients, it's an excellent option for anyone seeking a balanced meal. However, watch out for excessive sodium if using canned tuna or pre-made dressing. Simple and wholesome, Tuna Veggie Salad makes eating healthy deliciously easy!
