    Didn't read all the responses, I use Chobani plain yogurt instead of Mayo.I LOVe that it doesn't have an aftertaste, I'm adding protein and I'm not wasting calories on Mayo.

    I use canola oil mayo but if you are trying to cut your overall fat/calories try mixing a little EVOO with a little horseradish mustard (or whatever flavor you prefer).

    I thought I was being original with the Laughing Cow wedge added to my tuna - until I searched the forum for no-mayo tuna recipes. The light Laughing Cow wedges are only 35 calories. I also tend to skip the bread with my tuna, and instead go for something like lettuce leaves or rye crackers.

    Greek yogurt is also a delicious idea I might have to try.

    ALSO - I always make sure to RINSE my tuna - it drastically cuts the sodium.

    Personally I would still use real mayo. You only need a tsp for 1 sandwich and what does that have 15-20 calories........could never figure out diet food or giving up on what makes food taste good to an individual........moderation my friend.

    I just use mayo. I try to get a pretty accurate eyeball measurement, log it, and make it fit in my daily calories.



    Because mayo is delicious.

    Oh you'll love this!

    Instead of mayo, use bbq sauce. Also, switch the tuna out for pulled pork. It's delicious!!

    Dijon Mustard and just a little bit of fat free kraft miracle whip. You can get away with under 1tbsp of miracle whip if you use a good blop of dijon.

    Also, do you work for general mills? I worked there for 5 years before I resigned. Wife still works there.

    Wow - first comment too

    DITTO!
