Sardines contain the same inflammation-taming fats as salmon but are less expensive. Pairing sardines with tuna tones down their concentrated flavor; adjust the ratio if you like a pronounced taste. For a tuna-melt twist, spread this salad on sliced whole-grain bread, sprinkle with chopped tomatoes, and broil until hot.
