    A little light mayo, boiled egg, diced celery, diced dill pickle, diced onion and finely shredded lettuce.

    Or

    Light mayo, diced celery, diced apple and raisins

    I like your recipe but I sometimes mix it with chickpeas, a little olive oil, pepper, and fresh lemon squeezed in, combine, then heap it on whole wheat toast, sprinkle parmesan cheese on it, place it in oven on broil for a minute. It makes a healthy yet tasty snack.

    Diced dill pickle, celery, olives, light ranch dressing, yellow mustard, a splash of lemon juice or pickle juice and fresh ground black peppercorns. I love it on deli rye bread with lettuce and spinach!

    I get the low sodium tuna pouches and mostly eat it plain, but sometimes I will mix it with fresh dill and chopped onion, or sometimes with the dried jalapeno (from Penzey's) and lime juice.

    If it's going on lettuce as a salad I will add some light mayo and a chopped fuji apple. If it's for a sandwich I add light mayo, chopped tomato, iceberg lettuce, salt and pepper.

    The most delicious way I've had tuna is with mayo, cilantro, red onion, salt and pepper. Then you dip into it with tortilla chips and add a few drops or a splash of Crystal hot sauce. It's SO good.

    Just mayo. For a while it was olive oil, but I'd rather eat it less often and have it taste good. =)

    If I'm lazy, I eat it straight out of the can. If I'm motivated...

    Chopped red, yellow and orange bell peppers, celery, onions, carrots and add some grape tomatoes and mix in a bowl with plain tuna and add a drizzle of olive oil, small dab of mayo, a dash of garlic salt, cayenne pepper, cracked black pepper and a squeeze of lime.

    Kinda like a salad without the leafy greens

    Soy sauce is something not unhealthy to add, while still getting some flavor. Sometimes I put low fat mayo in it. I think low fat mayo with tuna is a lot healthier than other things you could choose to eat. Having a can of tuna for a meal is not only protein-rich and calorie-low...but it's so fast when you're low on time. Carry it with me all the time on campus.

    I've been using mashed avocado instead of mayoniase and it's really good. It gives it a smooth texture. I have this addiction to mayo, i know, it's pretty gross BUT IT TASTE SO GOOOD :-)

    Tuna packed in water, not oil. Drained, mixed in a bowl with French's mustard and a diced egg. One can prepared like this makes two sandwiches.

    NO MAYO! :sick:

    I bet it would be amazing with the horseradish though. I need it try that, man, I totally love horseradish.

    I like it with Dijon mustard, a little mayonnaise, and possibly olives or chopped celery. A hardboiled egg is tasty too.

    Believe it or not cottage cheese is AMAZING in tuna!

    I totally believe that. Sounds good to me.

    I do different things, depending on my mood, how much time I have, what ingredients I have. The most common is probably about 1/2 as much shredded carrot as I have tuna, black pepper, cayenne, .5 tablespoon of mayo, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, celery seed, cucumber, and a sprinkle of sunflower seeds.

    Tomatoes and avocado.

    Sometimes I do diced apple and .5 tablespoon of walnuts.

    I also like finely chopped pickles and onion, but not pickle relish.

    Num. Now I want tuna. :)

    Good suggestions - I love, love, love spicy foods. I think the sriracha sounds like a great match!
