What's everyone's favorite low cal tuna meal, lunch or dinner? I love tuna and I think it might be my saving grace during this journey.

Tuna + Cottage Cheese sprinkled with black pepper = amazing

I buy my tuna in pouches. One pouch worth on a rice cake, sprinkle a tiny amount of shredded cheese on top, then nuke it in the microwave for a few seconds to melt the cheese. Gluten-free tuna melt.

I also make tuna salad by mixing mashed avocado and a touch of lime juice with the tuna. Again, I usually put it on a rice cake.

I used to make tuna pasta all the time but the pasta makes it so high in calories so I've taken to making the sauce and eating it on it's own. Chop a large white onion and fry off, add a tin of chopped tomatoes or a carton of passata, mixed herbs, garlic powder, chilli flakes, little sugar and some tomato puree, and some corn starch granules to thicken. Add 2 tins (135g each) of tuna chunks in brine. Works out at 2 servings just under 290 cals each. I sometimes have a slice of toast alongside.

I just bought Starkits Tuna Creations. It comes with ranch, lemon pepper and spicy dressing. It is moist and ready to eat. The best part is that each pouch is only 80 calories.

My Tuna meal tends to be my main evening meal so not really low calorie, normally 1 tin of no drain tuna, 1 bag of Tilda rice (250g) and about 100g of sweetcorn....put it all in a bowl, stir together and eat, for about 600+cals

Tuna steak, coated in sesame seeds, slightly seared, then thinly sliced to dip in a soy/garlic/rice wine vinegar sauce.

Starkist tuna pouches! Use as a salad topping or in a wrap. They also make a small kit with crackers that's only 130 calories too.

Oven baked Cajun Tuna Steak, with wild rice and Kale.

One of my favorite easy Sicilian recipes, tuna agrodolce (sweet and sour) works great with salmon or other firm fish steaks too and it reheats OK. It's good with or without the cannelini beans. I use stevia instead of the sugar -- be careful not to use too much. I usually don't have fresh mint around, dried mint flakes work fine in the recipe:

Tuna in a tub mixed with lettuce, onion, cucumber, whatever other salad items I have in my fridge haha

I put it on top of a salad or in a wrap mostly. The Tuna Creation pouches are good just eaten with a fork for a quick dose of protein.

1 can of Starkist yellowtail tuna in water + one half avocado cut into chunks + pepper sauce to taste. I eat this for lunch with crackers and it is so yummy and very filling.

Wow so many great ideas. I love tuna and I think I could eat it for every meal and never get tired of it, I used to make tuna salad with guac instead of mayo. it was so good. I also like putting it on salad. I need to get more Olive Garden dressing, yum! More ideas welcome!!
