About Tuna with mayo and black pepper

Tuna with mayo and black pepper is a simple yet flavorful dish often enjoyed in salads, wraps, or as a spread. Originating from Western cuisine, it combines canned or fresh tuna with creamy mayonnaise and a sprinkle of black pepper for a subtle kick of spice. Tuna is a rich source of lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12 and D, supporting heart and brain health. However, the addition of mayonnaise can raise concerns due to its high fat and calorie content, especially if consumed in large quantities. Opting for yogurt or light mayo can make this dish healthier. Black pepper, a widely used spice, adds depth and provides compounds with potential antioxidant properties. This quick-prep meal is versatile, making it a staple in households seeking a balance of taste and nutritional benefits.
