    I chop up a cucumber and/or a tomato and add some salsa (505 Southwestern Organic Green Chili Sauce is my FAVORITE). Then I just mix it all up and eat it with a fork.

    As pasta salad. mixed with maio, mustard, relish and whole grain pasta.
  • I LOVE doing this with my canned tuna:

    Add:

    1 Tbsp of Low-Fat Mayo with Olive Oil
    Small handful of Sunflower Kernels (Unsalted)
    1 Tbsp Yellow Mustard

    Mix it all together and eat with about 10 Sea Salt Pita Chips (Trader Joe's), eat it by itself OR eat on a piece of toasted multigrain bread.

    Great snack or meal! :)

    I just mix it with some spices and low fat sour cream, or just plain ol' mustard and just eat it with a fork :)

    I sneer at it and leave it on the grocery store shelf where it belongs. :-)
  • From my favorite chef Michael Smith (also the head chef for the 2010 Winter Olympics)

    In a bowl;
    1 can tuna
    splash or your best olive oil
    tbsp Dijon mustard
    finely chopped onions (whatever you have on hand)
    finely chopped celery
    small splash of lime juice (about a teaspoon or to taste)
    season with salt and pepper (i use kosher salt and fresh ground pepper)

    Enjoy in a sandwich or wrap with your choice of lettuce.
    (when i got some in the cupboard I also throw a few plain potato chips on the sandwich.... sooooo good)
