Despite the fact that tuna, along with other marine life, contains mercury, consumed in moderation tuna provides protein, vitamins, minerals and omega-3 fatty acids with very little saturated fat. Whether canned or fresh, there are several healthy, nutrient-packed ways to prepare and eat tuna.
I love this great easy three minutes tuna salad. It makes a really easy snack or even a lunch for your busy day. It uses three main ingredients  and spices of your choice; I used black pepper, paprika and cumin here.
