    A bit of mayo, a bit more of mustard, with onions and pickles. I didn't realize that people don't (apparently) use mustard in their tuna.

    A bit of mayo, a dash of ketchup, fresh diced hot cayenne peppers (different heat level for different people of course), some cracked black pepper. Somtimes I'll dice up some onion as well.

    Gave the hot peppers a try a few months ago and never looked back.

    My favorite is mayo, yellow mustard, dill pickle relish and finely chopped onion... I've heard that avocado is supposed to be pretty good!

    Surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet. Mayo and lemon juice. Simple and amazing.

    Good quality tuna in oil.
    Good quality full fat/egg mayo.
    Freshly squeezed lemon juice.
    Good quality crusty fresh white bread.
    Nothing else, not even pepper, salt or marg/butter on the bread.

    Dreamy.

    Pasta.. it's the best. Sautée garlic and chilis, add canned tuna (I use the one in olive oil) add white wine, salt and lots of pepper then your pasta. Best thing ever

    Tbs lemon, Tbs vinegar, pinch of salt, pinch of pepper, pinch of cayenne pepper.

    Then if I want a salad I'd go spinach, Danish feta, grape tomatos, cucumber

    Super good

    Mayo, apple, dried cranberries, salt, curry, cinnamon

    This, although I've always used raisins rather than cranberries. The contrast between the curry and the sweet fruit is amazing

    When I am hungry and just lazy, lemon pepper. When I am motivated, I make it a huge salad with red peppers, celery, red onion, old bay seasoning, dijon, and fat free mayo.

    Well, now I'm going to have to have tuna salad for dinner tonight.

    My husband likes just mayo, salt and pepper, but if it's just me eating it, I will change it up depending on my mood. I like a little dill and Greek yogurt in mine, or mayo and relish, or avocado and HB eggs. And I always add chopped celery and onion.

    It really depends on my mood, but most often it's a mix of mayo, horseradish mustard, apple cider vinegar, and Mrs. Dash onion and herb spice mix.

    Plus chopped onion, carrot, celery and cucumber if I'm eating over leafy greens or in a wrap. Plus finely onion and celery if I'm making a sandwich (too many or too chunky vegetables tends to make it messy on a sandwich).

    I have been mixing a wedge of laughing cow cheese to my canned tuna which is pretty good. But I'm looking for more ideas. What's your favorite thing to add to canned tuna?

    Srirachi sauce and a bit of mayo to get it to stick together.

    Growing up, my grandmother would always make tonno (darker tuna packed in olive oil) with a bit of minced onion and vinegar. It's what I got used to, but I still find that taste of that a bit strong for my liking. Now, I'll use white tuna with a drizzle of olive oil and a splash of vinegar if I'm eating it alone or in a salad.

    In a sandwich I still prefer Mayonnaise. No onion/celery/etc - they ruin the texture for me.

    And sometimes, when I can't be bothered to do anything and need the protein, I'll just grab a fork and eat it out of the can, undressed.

    I usually keep it pretty simple: either some mayo or an avocado if I have one, some onion, celery, and a pinch of pepper and salt.
