Not only are these little guys great for serving as a canapé at your next get-together, our tuna sliders also make a healthy and wholesome work lunch or snack. The Heart and Stroke Foundation SA recommends eating at least two servings (100g each) of oily fish a week to lower cholesterol and prevent blood clotting.
