I'm tired of tuna casserole; got any good tuna recipes?

AsellusReborn

All we seem to use tuna for is tuna casserole and tuna salad. And they're good, but come on...there's got to be something better to do. What do YOU do with canned tuna?

I usually chop up carrots, celery, green olives, and whatever other veggies I have on hand, make them real small pieces and mix them in my tuna then I spread this on a leaf of romaine. I even use a wedge of laughing cow cheese sometimes. I hope this helps some. I am curious to see what others do....

Use the search feature to look at other posts that have tuna recipes. Here's one from about nine months ago that has some delicious sounding recipes: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/582495-tuna-recipes-anyone-anyone?hl=tuna+recipes#posts-82959. I love to eat tuna mixed with cottage cheese, celery and green onions (with curry powder optional). Sometimes I just eat it just like that or sometimes I put it in a pita.

I like to buy the Tuna Sensations and eat them with Weight Watchers Savory Herb crackers. It is sooooo good. And a great light snack that is high in protein. It does have some carbs which makes it a great mid-morning snack!

We often put tuna in pasta sauce. I use 2 small cans for one jar of marinara sauce.
First time I did that my husband looked at me like I'm a weirdo but he really enjoyed it
