What to do with canned tuna?!

Half a can on a bed of lettuce and fresh tomato with a half cup of cottage cheese is one of my favorite summer salads.0

Don't forget about vegetable salads too. This is my lunch today - roasted pumpkin and carrot (with spices), chickpeas, baby spinach, tuna with a little olive oil, red wine vinegar and honey as dressing. Wish I had some avocado to put in it too!

Avocado with the pumpkin?
You guys are more adventurous with your tuna than I am. I can't see the cottage cheese with tuna either.0 -

For variety, instead of mayo-tuna sandwiches, I'll add barbeque sauce to the tuna and have it as a sandwich or with crackers. Mmm.

For sure! It works with roast pumpkin and other vegies. Not sure if it would work quite as well if they were boiled or steamed. This way it's a nice combination of nutty, sweet and creamy. Avocado goes with just about everything in my mind!0 -
It's a pain to make in small quantities, but I think Salad Nicoise is the greatest of all salads and tomatoes are in season, at least where I live. In fact you've inspired me to go to the farmers market tomorrow for the ingredients.0

I love my tuna with avocado, lime juice, cilantro and a pinch of Himalayan salt! So good!0

Oooh! and we also like mixing tuna with fresh homemade pico de gallo and serving on baked corn tortillas! Yum!0

The tuna patties sound good but I use tuna as a high volume/low calorie food so I don't know if I'd want to be adding egg and oil to it. I'd rather just eat a turkey burger or something.0

I make tinned Tuna Sandwiches, Toasties (with melted cheese and Ketchup). Baked/sweet Potato Topping. It mixes well with Mayonaise, Mustard (takes the fishy taste away) or cream cheese. Or I sometimes just eat it straight out of the can. That's just how I roll. Loads of protein, good fat, low calorie and as much Mercury poisoning as you can handle. Good stuff.0

Oh, forgot to mention. It mixes really well with Pasta. I use Tuna, sweetcorn and red or green pesto. Low cal, high protein and carbs from pasta.0

The other day I made pasta (half wheat half zucchini) with tuna, mushrooms, anchovies, rosemary, garlic and parmesan. It was pretty good.0

I thought the chili/tuna sounded unique, then found this:

Now I want chili tuna meatballs with the sauce.0 -
I mix it with some fat free mayo, dill relish, mozzarella cheese, mustard, and a hard boiled egg chopped up and then either put it all in a hollowed out tomato or eat it with 34 degree brand crackers0

Mix with 1 serving cottage cheese and slather with Louisiana Hot Sauce. Quick easy low cal lunch0
