How much mayo do you put in tuna? I usually mix 2-3 TBSP of mayo with one can. Too dry and I'm not going to enjoy it.

    1 T to 2.6 oz/74g tuna usually.
    I use flavored tuna pouches instead of canned.

    I tried it with cottage cheese instead of mayo. It was great, liked it better!

    None. Mayo is so gross. I eat tuna plain. Sometimes, I mix it with hummus. Sometimes I like to put pickle relish in it. Other times, I just mix it with salsa.

    Ooh, I'm definitely trying it with hummus next time!

    If you like tuna, spend $1 on a tin of Beach Cliff sardines in mustard. Put them on Wheat Thins with a small piece of whatever cheese you want (sharp cheddar is awesome). All a sardine is is just a small herring that's been cleaned and steamed. They're delicious.

    If you mix mayo,tuna,honey,mustard and relish you have your own tuna in tartar sauce.
    2-3 Tbsp with a 5 oz can sounds about right.

    I don't care for mayo, so I mash an avacado, then add enough olive oil, then add tuna.

    I like to use a good strong horseradish or dijon mustard with tuna. Far lower calories and much more flavor.

    Today I mixed half a can of tuna with 2tbsp salsa, and heated it up. Spread it on a ww tortilla with fresh spinach :). That, a yogurt, and some raspberries was my lunch.

    I use hummus, Greek yogurt, or olive oil. I like mayo, but I decided it wasn't helping me reach my goals, so chose to substitute with other yummy choices

    Salsa sounds good! I only have used mustard and I'm getting tired of it.

    I like to add celery or onion chopped in tiny pieces to add crunchy texture....or sometimes I cooked my tuna on a little olive oil or coconut oil and add red onion and white vinegar....eat with brown rice ....yumm!!!! Other option is tuna omelet....1 can, 3 eggs, add onion, veggies, whatever you want and I like to put lemon juice once is cooked and ready to eat...mix with lettuces, tomatoes, whatever salad you'd like.

    I use 1 tbs light mayo, 1 tbs low-fat sour cream or yogurt, and 1.5 tbs dill relish. So yummy.

    Adding a bit of curry paste to tuna is super good.

    I'm another tuna and salsa fan. Lately I've been eating a can with a half a package of thawed frozen spinach, salsa, hot sauce, and red onions.

    None, I have no idea why you would want to add mayo to tuna, that sounds gross to me.

    I add 2 tablespoons of the Hellmans Mayo with canola oil. (less calories) I can't put less than that, otherwise it taste vile to me.
