    I've mixed my tuna with cottage cheese! Sounds kind of gross but its good. And is quite filling. Not sure about the pickles though.

    Let me know if you try it and what u think!

    Good luck!

    WIN! Protein bomb! :P

    I like to use guacamole (low sodium or homemade is best).

    A couple of people at work sometimes order a tuna platter with balsamic vinegar. Can't say that I have tried it. A couple of people here mentioned ranch dressing. That I have done when I was out of tuna (pretty good). I have had mustard (ok). I like the avocado idea too. This girl I used to work wih made her own mayo with oil and eggs... can't say that I have done that either!!

    I to love using mayo with tuna fish, but obviously it's not the best choice. This is my substitute (it's different from what everyone else has suggested too)

    Oikos Fat Free Greek Yogurt (Get it a WalMart) 2Tbsp
    Mustard (Any kind you like) 1Tbsp

    Mix it together and it's a great substitute for mayo. Only 16 calories for the whole mixture where as regular mayo would be 300!

    i mix hummus into tuna or canned salmon - yum!

    I would never have thought if that in a million years.
    Sounds weird, but I might try it!

    Yep, 0% fat Greek yoghurt would work well, or tzatziki would be even better - you put lemon juice in yoghurt dips and they don't curdle so I doubt a pickle or two would be any different...?

    I mix in a hardboiled egg, some pickle relish, and some Kraft Fat Free Honey Dijon salad dressing! Then I eat it over lettuce.

    Quote" My bodybuilding friend told me he eats his tuna with mustard and I thought it sounded gross .... and then I tried it and I like it.
    Not good if you're watching your sodium though.


    What kind of Mustard?

    I personally eat mine like this:

    Starkist - Chunk White Albacore Tuna In Water *** Very Low Sodium, 1 container (4 oz draineds ea.)
    Kraft - Miracle Whip Light, 1 Tbsp (15g)
    Celery - Raw, 2 tbsp
    Fresh Produce - Red Onion (Medium), 2 tbsp
    Heinz (Costco) - Yellow Mustard, 1 tsp.

    Total Cals = 157

    I am having this for lunch today on a smart and delicisous 80 cal wrap with some romaine and tomato slices. Plus a little bag of baby carrots for a total cal intake of 280 for lunch!

    Can't wait, almost lunch time!!! :happy:
