    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)

    I just add avocado and fresh lemon juice. Super quick and simple.

    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!

    Definitely smells kinda gnarly but i add paprika, one hard boiled egg and a little mayo and crush it all together. Eat it with a piece of wheat toast or add salsa and spinach if your avoiding gluten.

    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

    Instead of bacon and mozarella grated and eggs muffins, you can do mozarella, eggs, and canned tuna in the forms of muffins

    Make a tuna salad with mashed up avocado in lieu of mayo! I just do tuna, avocado, some pepper, a little garlic powder, and green onions if you have em. Super filling

    Tuna cakes! I add egg whites, scallions, a little Dijon and fry.

    That sounds good. And I LOVE tuna. Must try. Thanks for your ideas.

    1 can tuna
    15 grams mayo
    31 grams light cream cheese
    dashes of white pepper, garlic salt, lemon pepper and a bunch of dried tarragon
    appx 240 calories depending on the grams of tuna in the can, which vary widely IME

    @Hearts_2015 lol. I mix everything together - 1 drained can of tuna, 1-2 egg whites, Dijon, seasonings, scallions and get 2 patties.

    I like to put a light mayo/picamas (Guatemalan hot sauce) mixture on them, but have made other mayo based sauces too.

    Basic southern tuna salad lol. Mayo, sweet pickle relish, salt & pepper. Sometimes I'll throw in some lemon and celery or red onion too. I use about a tablespoon of Hampton Creek Just Mayo. No eggs, no cholesterol, no sugar, but so good. Coming from a mayo fiend lol.
