One of my go to weeknight dinners is this tuna quesadilla because honestly, it comes together in about fifteen minutes flat. I just mix canned tuna with mayo and salsa, spread it on a flour tortilla with some cheddar cheese, and pan fry until golden. The tuna gives you a great dose of omega 3 fatty acids which are so good for your heart and brain. Plus, everything comes straight from your pantry, so there's minimal prep and cleanup. It's seriously the perfect meal when you're short on time but don't want to sacrifice flavor.
