Well, I knew: Mom started making liters and liters of broth because she can't resist soup. And now a mountain of meat is left over! Sure very good, but always eating boiled meat is not the best. So I thought about preparing an accompanying sauce to make the meat more appetizing. I'm talking about the tuna sauce which, as we know, is prepared with tuna, capers, anchovies and mayonnaise (or oil and hard-boiled eggs). Here, today I would like to offer it in the lighter version: the tuna sauce with yogurt. Let's find out together what we need.

Alice's comment - PersonalCooker
Here is a delicious sauce to accompany with boiled meat (in my case) or to fill vol-ou-vent or even to spread on white bread to prepare delicious canapes.

The egg-free light tuna sauce is an alternative preparation to the traditional recipe and is almost totally cholesterol-free. It lends itself to the diet in case of hypercholesterolemia and, despite being produced with tuna in oil, the intake of fats is not the highest, like the total calories, which are also contained; proteins are abundant and of high biological value. The average portion of light tuna sauce corresponds to about 30g (40kcal).
