This tuna salad recipe is not only healthy and flavorful, but it’s also very easy to make. The combination of canned tuna, roasted sweet potato, and fresh veggies creates a satisfying and filling dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner.

In addition to being a great source of protein, the tuna in this recipe is also high in omega-3 fatty acids, which are important for heart health and brain function. The sweet potato adds a boost of vitamin A and fibre, while the other vegetables provide a range of vitamins and minerals.

The dressing is a simple mix of Greek yogurt and Dijon mustard, which gives the salad a tangy flavor without adding a lot of calories or fat. Overall, this tuna salad is a nutritious and delicious option for anyone looking to maintain a healthy diet without sacrificing taste.
