  • Omega-3 fatty acids are good for heart health.
  • Potassium in tuna helps lower blood pressure.
  • Immune system is boosted by the manganese, zinc, vitamin C and selenium present in tuna. Since tuna is a low-calorie food, it is good for maintaining a healthy weight.

Variations on the Tuna Sandwich

While this tuna on toast is made with bread and butter pickles, it can be made with dill pickle or a sweet pickle. Additionally, you can add lettuce, tomatoes, and even sliced onions. Remember, I always say, revise the recipe to your taste buds.
