A simple swap in your tuna sandwich could make it creamier and more nutritious. Food enthusiast Lana Robinson has gone viral on TikTok with her recipe that replaces mayonnaise with cottage cheese.
Robinson drains a tin of tuna, breaks it up with a fork, and adds chopped onions, pickled jalapeños, salt, and pepper. She then blends cottage cheese until smooth and folds it into the tuna mixture. The result is a creamy, protein-packed filling.
Cottage cheese is lower in calories and fat than mayonnaise, and rich in protein, calcium, and B vitamins. It is known to aid weight management, muscle recovery, and bone health.
Robinson's original TikTok video has garnered over 1.4 million views, with many viewers praising the alternative as tastier and healthier than the classic mayo version.
