Canned Tuna Recipes

I usually do tuna two ways:

1) tuna, mayo, diced red onion, diced celery, chopped bread and butter pickles, a dollop of ketchup and a smaller one of mustard, S&P to taste

2) tuna, mayo, diced red onion, diced celery, chopped fresh dill, lemon juice, lemon zest, S&P to taste

I like @JenHuedy's idea...

A friend of mine used to make it this way:

3 cans tuna
1 to 1.5 cups of Quaker 100% Natural Granola Cereal
.33 cup of honey

He was quite strange in many other ways, too.

add 1 pack of Hooly Guacamole. 100 calories.or
take greek yogurt plain add dried Ranch dressing then add 1/4 cup or so to tuna. add capers.serve over shredded lettuce and slice cukes

I keep mine pretty simple: mayo, diced celery or bell pepper, dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt/pepper, and Sriracha.

tuna salad wrap...can of tuna, a bit of mayo, add in whatever suits your fancy. Lay a bed of lettuce on a wrap, add the tuna salad mixture, then wrap

I love adding mustard, a little light mayo, pickles, and red onion
Or calorie wise Italian dressing and pickles
Or with helluva good dip and pickles

Basically, it needs pickles.

Thanks. Simple and easy to make!

Snack of Tuna salad on Ritz cracker snacks ... make you favorite tuna salad mixture and dollop a tablespoon between 2 Ritz crackers. Have 2 as a snack.

Meal of Salad with lettuce, chopped vegetables and drained tuna as the protein.

Meal of 1 Russet potato sliced thin and either pan fried or oven baked served with a can of drained tuna and a pickle

Meal of Tuna cakes ... like crab cakes but made with Tuna, ... use a dry mashed potato (no butter or milk/cream, just potato) instead of crackers or breadcrumbs in the mixture along with an egg, scallions, seasonings of your choice and fashion into small cakes then gently dredge the patties through flour before skillet frying to crisp the surface on both sides. Serve with lemon wedges, sliced tomatoes and cucumber. 2 Cakes per serving. Makes 4 cakes

Meal of Tuna Salad stuffed tomato ... served on a bed of shredded lettuce with 2 saltine crackers and lemon wedge.

Tip on Tuna salad ... you can use ranch dressing or yogurt instead of mayo for the mixture, but you really only need about 1 teaspoon of mayo to make tuna salad. A little goes a long way.

My classic tuna is as follows:
1-can tuna (whatever your pleasure)
1/3cup - diced yellow peppers
1/3cup - diced red peppers
1/3cup - diced green peppers
1/4cup - diced scallions
1/4cup - diced celery
1/4cup - finely chopped onion
1tbsp - miracle whip salad dressing (to hold together)

Stove top Italian tuna casserole - add tuna to canned tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and garlic. Add cooked noodles or macaroni and heat through. Top with a little parmesan and it's done!

Hands down the best flavor is you mix the tuna in with some miracle whip and sweet relish. Miracle Whip not only tast better with tuna it has less calories and fat than regular mayo
