    I LOVE red onion so tend to chop up some onion, maybe get some sweetcorn too, if I'm in the mood, and mix it in with my tuna. Yummm. Simple but yummmmm!

    I usually use oil and vinegar, tuna, then cut up a bit of cheese and whatever veggies I have on hand (I'm obesessed with red wine vinegar so I flood it in that haha)

    I know this isn't helpful right now since you don't have these ingredients on hand, but for the future I recommend Greek yogurt and siracha. I make a batch a week:
    4 oz fat free plain Greek yogurt & 1 tsp of siriacha (Asian hot sauce). It comes to 10 calories a TBSP.
    I use it in place of mayo on sandwiches, egg salad, tuna salad ect :)

    Combine the (drained) Tuna, 2tsp Soy Sauce, Garlic, couple of spring onions & some bread crumbs in a mixing bowl. Make balls from the mix, then roll in flour, egg & more breadcrumbs (each in their own bowl). Flatten out gently on a baking tray & bake for 20 minutes = gorgeous fish cakes!!! If you like it a bit more spicy, add some chilli flakes to the tuna mix, along with some chinese fish sauce and some lemon juice (1 or 2 tsp should do it) and these will be transformed into Thai Fish Cakes. For that extra crunch, you can add some parmesan to the final breadcrumb too! Enjoy!

    I mix a can of tuan with an egg and 1/4 cup Progresso bread crumbs. Cook it in a frying pan for a few minutes on each side and you have a delectable tuna burger!

    UH! This sounds amazing! I may have to try that this weekend! Do you scramble up the egg and then mix the 3 ingredients together?

    I replace mayonnaise with low fat sour cream, works great! Tuna, chicken, turkey, burgers, anything you would use normally have used mayo in.

    I realize that doesn't help you right now, but for future sandwiches:flowerforyou:

    I use celery and add a few sprays of wishbones salad spritzer (italian). Only 1 calorie per spray.

    I'm kinda curious because I just thought of this but have not tried it. What does everybody think of laughing cow cheese mixed with tuna? Think it would be good? I mean, it's cheese and tuna how could it not right? I want tuna now! I love tuna with egg whites!

    Nothing comes to mind with the ingredients you have on-hand, but I use hummus to make tuna salad. Sometimes I add some avocado or light mayonnaise if I feel like it, but hummus is a great low-cal high-protein healthy alternative. A love to make it with spinach and artichoke hummus especially! Mmmm.
