What to have with tuna fish...

Lyadeia

If you were going to eat a packet of the Starkist tuna fish that comes in different flavors such as hickory smoked, what would you mix with it for best taste (mayo? cheese? both? something different altogther?)

And what kind of bread would you have it on if you didn't particularly care for regular ol' boring white or whole wheat loaves from the grocery store? Pita perhaps?

Just looking for ideas here. And don't worry about "clean" foods, low carb, or whatever. Just something that would taste good with the tuna and be about 250 calories or so total for a nice snack while I am at work is all I'm looking for. :flowerforyou:

Tuna + A tiny bit of mayo+ Milton's 'Everything' crackers (in the purple box) = dinner at least once a week for me.

It comes out to be more than 250 cals, but you get the gist. I would imagine the flavored kind you wouldn't even need to mix with anything. I've been tempted to pick up a couple of those to try them out...

Cottage cheese all the way.

I like to add dill and mayo, and I eat it with celery. it's nice and crunchy, and the calories i've used in mayo are fine since there isn't anything in celery.

I add seasoning salt to mine. Also chopping up pickled jalapeños and mixing in is really good!

I like tuna mixed with avocado. I use the avocado in place of mayo and add a little grated onion and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Tuna salad- made with the tinyiest amount of mayo, some mustard, and a little pickle relish. Delish!

mdhughes33

Olive oil and a touch of lemon juice with dill over kale.

i always chop up a hard boiled egg with some pickles, tomatoes, and onion.

tuna + leftover pasta + bernstein's light cheese fantastico + mustard + little bit of lemon juice + handful of peppercorns + sprinkle some bread crumbs for an added crunch.

taste like a quick tuna casserole

I sometimes have it for breakfast with my scrambled eggs. I sauté some onions and tomatoes, then add the eggs, cook them a bit and then add the tuna and some seasoning I like. Yesterday, I even added some capers. :bigsmile: It turned out to be a hearty and tasty meal.

I do tuna on a whole wheat tortilla and some Franks Red Hot sauce. Simple and quick.

dsm0001

I like it with a touch of mayo, dill relish, and celery.....and then put on low fat triscuits! Mmmmmm.

michellekicks

I mix the tuna with mayo and put it on Dill flavored Triscuit crackers... or celery sticks if I'm trying to cut out calories.

I LOVE TUNA! I mix mine with some sandwhich spread and slap it on whole wheat bread or a whole wheat bun.. sometimes put some yellow mustard on the top.. add pepper and a dash of salt and some chopped up dill pickles.. depends on what kind of taste I want.

airangel59

I love tuna but rarely make it as a sandwich...I use lite mayo but chop/dice in a TON of veggies (celery, tomato, pickles, black olives, carrots, onion, whatever's in the fridge) a bit of S&P and then insert folk. If need a crunch, I've had a serving of melba rounds or the like. I find it more filling than in pita or thin bread.
