Salads are dishes that always provide a large amount of nutrients and take care of our health, that is why today we bring you this simple and quick recipe that you can prepare in a short time and get a delicious meal with little money.
Tuna is a widely recommended protein for health because it contains a large amount of Omega 3. It is also rich in potassium and contains amino acids that help improve health.
This protein helps preserve memory, improve cardiovascular function, lose weight, protect the skin and complement the levels of vitamins and minerals in the body.
With this simple recipe you will be saving time and money but investing in health for your body.
What do you need?
- 1 can of whole tuna
- 1 small onion
- 1 large tomato
- 1 small bell pepper or ½ large bell pepper
- Coriander
- Salt and pepper
- Oil
- Vinegar or lemon
- Mayonnaise (optional)
- Lettuce
How to make it?
Step 1: Chop all the ingredients except the tuna in small cubes. Place in a bowl and reserve. Place the tuna on a plate (drain excess oil if it is tuna in oil) and shred with a fork.
Step 2: Let the lettuce leaves you like soak in the dish in water and vinegar for 5 minutes. Drain well and dry with kitchen paper or a clean cloth (this will prevent it from losing its consistency).
Step 3: Mix all the ingredients and place on the lettuce leaves to bring it to the table.
You can add avocado, corn kernels and different types of lettuce if you prefer.
