While dieting, I find the healthiest BBQ Sauce I can, and skip the oil. We just grill them in a non-stick pan until they firm up. In all honesty though, they are much better when using the oil, if you have the points to spare.0 -
I like it with Siraki noodles (cooked) and a wedge of light swiss laughing cow cheese.0

This is my own take on tuna salad with veggies, I just used what I had on hand. You could also use bell peppers, red onion, broccoli, etc. 325 cal for the items below.

Mix together and make patties. Cook in skillet. I ended up eating 1.5 or 2 of them. Husband suggested that I cook the onions first.0 -

I made this for lunch today. It was really good, only 264 calories, 8 carbs, 12 fat, 4 sugar, and 177 sodium, but packs a whopping 34 protein. Nice! I just ate it as-is, mixed well in a bowl, but I think it would be amazing on some water crackers... I just didn't happen to have any on hand. :ohwell: Anyway, I've dubbed it, "Confetti Tuna Salad".

6 pepperoncini peppers, destemmed and julienned
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

I like these simple recipes...
2 Cans tuna (Standard UK cans, about 180g drained)
1 Can sweetcorn
200g Passata
125g Ricotta Cheese
100g Pasta (Dry weight) cooked according to instructions
Warm the passata in a saucepan.
Add in the tuna and sweetcorn and let the passata cook down until desired consistency.
Stir in the ricotta and pasta. Serves 2 good portions.
Non nom nom!
Alternatively try
2 Cans tuna (Standard UK cans, about 180g drained)
1 Can sweetcorn
200g Passata
Curry Paste
Throw it all in a pot and cook until thick, serve with rice or a Naan or chapatis.0 -

^ Love this recipe post!! Clean, healthy fats (avacado) & love the addition of fiber (green pepper) - GREAT recipe!!! Thanks :]0 -
I make the Tuna Burgers that one of the posters above does. Soooo yummy! We always just called them Tuna Patties....and ate with a side of mac and cheese and green beans. Probably one of my all-time favorite foods!! Another thing I do: One can of tuna (drained), one can of green beans (drained), mix together. Too simple, but so good! I used to take that to work and it was beyond simple and I love the taste of the two mixed together. I know people that add ketchup or salt and pepper too.0

i make my own version of Whole Foods cranberry tuna that they serve in their deli. It is easy and yummy. You could eat it in a lettuce wrap or as a sandwich, but i usually just eat it as a salad.
1 can chunk light tuna in water
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1 TBS Hellman's lowfat may with Olive Oil
Onion powder to taste
1 tsp of lemon juice (or a little more if you prefer - no calories!)0
