THIS RECIPE HAS SOME SECRETS TO MAKE OUR MOST HEALTHY PLATE:

We use tuna in water to make it much healthier and lighter.

The mayonnaise is not bad if we know how to use it correctly, with the amounts indicated, but I also have another option is to do it for yourselves, here I leave you the way to prepare homemade mayonnaise. (SPANISH) Homemade Mayonnaise recipe

One advantage that you bring this recipe is that the vegetables we use are vegetables that have a sweet taste, which children like and eat much easier, and this is a way to introduce our children to eat Vegetables and in a healthier way.

One of the tips I give when using canned vegetables as in this recipe is to remove them from the can and rinse them in cold water, this decreases up to 70% sodium, mainly for people with hypertension.

If you want you can put in the middle of the layers when you are preparing other ingredients, other vegetables as a complement as lettuce or tomato cuts, remember that if you use more healthy vegetables you will be eating.
