Tuna and Cabbage Salad

Cookinero 12 Mar 2025

In terms of its health benefits, tuna is in many ways ahead of other types of fish, and in terms of taste, it is very similar to meat. People often call this fish "sea chicken" due to the extreme similarity of the tastes of these two products. Today we offer you to get the maximum benefit from this fish by using it as the main ingredient of a vegetable salad. In addition to tuna, the salad will also include fresh vegetables, corn and eggs.

Tuna and Cabbage Salad - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes! While green cabbage works well, you can substitute with red cabbage, savoy cabbage, or even coleslaw mix for convenience.
For a healthier option, try Greek yogurt, avocado mash, or a light vinaigrette made with olive oil and lemon juice.
Store it in an airtight container for up to 2 days. However, it's best enjoyed fresh to maintain crispness.
Absolutely! Replace the tuna with chickpeas, white beans, or diced tofu for a protein-rich vegetarian alternative.
No, freezing is not recommended as the cabbage and cucumbers will become watery and lose texture when thawed.
Definitely! Bell peppers, shredded carrots, or cherry tomatoes would add extra crunch and flavor.
Skip the corn and use a low-carb mayo or dressing. You're already on track with the high-veggie base!
Serve it in lettuce wraps, stuffed in avocado halves, or alongside grilled fish or chicken for a heartier meal.
Prep all ingredients separately and assemble just before eating to prevent sogginess. Keep dressing on the side.
