TUNA

Hey everyone! I am a lover of tuna but I have trouble eating it dry. I always put mayo in it and I am not a light mayo or miracle whip fan. I was just wondering what other people do with their tuna to make it moist and still great tasting! I recently bought the ranch tuna thinking it would help by not needing mayo and it wasnt terrible but I was disappointed in the actual herb taste they chose. :flowerforyou:

    I add lime juice to mine and then a dash of chilli jam (only a dash)...gives it some zing too!

    Mayo, Cream of Mushroom, Cream of Chicken....

    Doesn't matter, just log whatever you use though!

    Yup. I don't think there's such a thing as good tuna without mayo. :laugh:

    I tried replacing my mayo with some mashed up avocado--wasn't bad!

    You could try adding vinegar or Worcester sauce.:smile:

    I put 1/2 an avocado (roughly chopped- not mashed) and 1/2 cup of cottage cheese, and some days a tablespoon or two of hummus to a can of tuna. Not fantastic to eat every day, but I actually kind of like the flavor and texture.

    Oh- and I've added some salsa (very low cals) just to give it some moisture and flavor. Again, not fantastic, but better than raw tuna and easy for a quick snack.

    THIS. Tuna is so yum with Mayo. Personally I like the Helmann's with Canola oil, I just weigh it and add it in. I'm not skipping my yummy mayo.

    I either eat it plain w/some pickles or pickle relish, add mustard, or add avocado.

    This.

    You could also add avocado, but the calories are about the same. A little mayo won't kill you.

    Yeah me too. I find other ways to cut calories but doing without mayo in my tuna isn't one of them. LOL.

    I like red wine vinegar and some fresh herbs. Parsley, cilantro, chives or dill is nice.

    For sandwiches, try subbing mango juice for mayo.
