Nutritional values

A full 46 grams of protein provides a portion of pasta salad! Tuna and eggs make it possible. The eggs also provide full power for concentration: they are rich in lecithin, vitamin B2 and the nerve messenger choline.

Tuna is a practical source of protein, but you should enjoy it in moderation: Unfortunately, tuna is threatened with extinction due to overfishing and fishing methods.
