I am a fan of the Tuna Salad Sandwich. It is my favourite lunch after a workout at the gym.
With the low sodium version that is packed in water, tuna provides a high protein lunch, and as well is a good source of iron. This Tuna Salad Sandwich recipe is a nice combination of celery, tuna, mayo, pepper and lime juice…. a nice crunch with texture.
You can also change it up by adding lettuce or make it into a Tuna Melt by adding some cheddar and zapping it in the microwave.
Yummy!
