I don't want to use mayo really as I don't much like it, I am looking for clean and healthy things I can add to make a tuna salad filling for a tortillla wrap.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I have seen these dressing sprays in a can - this could add taste without a lot of calories. Alternatively, reducing the amount of mayo - I used to add tonnes of it, but found that really a small amount is only required. A balsamic vinegar might also work.0

I never was / still am not a huge mayo fan.
But for tuna salad I usually do:
3-4 cans of tuna
1 large pickle spear, diced.
A little pickle juice (helps with moisture just dont go overboard)
smallest amount of olive oil mayo that provides enough to hold everything together.
I use the kraft mayo made w/ olive oil and it's tolerable and has started to grow on me.
Not sure what else would work.0 -
hummus! i use that instead of miracle whip sometimes.0
-
I use a whole avocado instead of mayonnaise. It's creamy and delicious!0

Yellow mustard is my all time favorite thing to mix into tuna! Also dill relish, chopped celery, black pepper and sometimes cumin. Mmmm tunaaaa.0

cottage cheese0

Jillian Michaels has a great chicken salad recipe that replaces the mayo w/ greek yogurt and a little honey. I'm sure you could use it in tuna salad too. The recipe calls for plain greek yogurt which I hate by itself (too bitter) but mixed w/ the other ingredients you can't tell the difference at all! Just add a little honey to your tuna salad.0

Plain yogurt works great. It takes on the taste of whatever you put with it.0

Same boat, don't like mayo. Might not be your thing but I use grainy mustard, and like the other poster said, pickles.0

Avocado or guacamole, non-fat greek yogurt (I like the Jalapeno Greek Yogurt dip instead of plain).0

Yoghurt, cottage cheese, avocado, salsa0

greek yogurt
relish
mustard0 -
I made tuna salad the other day with plain non fat greek yogurt and it was really good. I little more bland than when I made it with mayo in the past, but I added some garlic powder and red pepper flakes and that helped a lot. I also add pickles and mustard and sometimes a chopped apple and celery.0

There is a product you might like called Miracle Mayo. Its made by Walden Farms. It has no calories. It doesn't exactly taste like Mayo, but its pretty good.0

My kids hate mayo so I use fat free or low fat Ranch dressing instead.0

I use the Starkist Sandwich Ready pouches. The albacore is 90 calories per pouch and it's made with soybean oil. It also has some celery and water chestnuts for a little crunch. One pouch is PLENTY for a good sized sandwich. I keep them in my desk drawer all the time.0
