    I like to mix with light miracle whip. Cut a cucumber in half and spread it and eat like a sub.

    I like to mix canned tuna with sour cream & salsa and eat it over lettuce (kinda like a taco salad). Sometimes I will add shredded cheese, tomatoes, and tortilla strips

    Today for lunch I made myself some buffalo tuna.

    1 can of tuna (drained)
    2 tbsp Ken's Buffalo Marinade/Sauce
    1 tbsp Wishbone Fat Free Bleu Cheese Dressing
    50 grams celery, finely chopped

    Nutrition:
    Calories: 172
    Fat: 5
    Sodium: 1,720 (high, I know)
    Carbs: 6
    Fiber: 1
    Protein: 27

    I mixed it all together and ate it with an Arnolds whole wheat sandwich thin. You could also do it as a wrap, put it over salad, or just eat it by itself.

    Heck yeah I am going to look into this!!

    I love making this tuna sandwich.

    I mix one can of tuna with ~1 tablespoon of hummus (spicy is my favorite), and add any spices I'm feeling. I spread the mix over a sandwich thin, or my favorite, naan cut into two halves (I love the recipe from budgetbytes.com and add my own spices). Then, I top it with spinach and avocado.

    One can of tuna usually makes three or four sandwiches for me.
