    I make a tuna salad, with tuna, avocado cut into cubes, tomato, onion, add lime juice, salt and pepper and a little cayenne or tabasco if you like it spicy. It's super delish! You can put it on a bed of greens if you like.

    This sounds *really* good!

    funny you post this..you gotta trust me. /i eat it EVERY SINGLE DAY.

    tuna in water
    brown rice
    sriracha japanese sauce
    teriyaki sauce

    It is so delicious. It's low in calories, carbs and sodium and of course good for you and high in protein.


    sounds delicious!! how much sriracha do you usually add?

    Mix cottage cheese in it, trust me it's good!

    I also love cottage cheese and tuna. Most ppl look at me like I have lost my mind. I also don't eat canned tuna often opting of the more expensive, but much tastier Yellow fin tuna steaks :)

    A different kind of tuna salad: I mix tuna with whole wheat cous cous, feta, diced tomato, a bit of olive oil, a splash of lemon juice (if I have lemons), fresh ground black pepper, red pepper flakes. To keep it from being too dry, I don't drain the tuna completely (packed in water of course). I think you can also try this with cottage cheese if you don't like feta.

    A friend of mine turned me on to the BEST tuna ever. It comes from WA and the company is called Tuna Guys. The albacore tuna is out of this world. Tuna from the grocery store..you know how it goes...open can and drain. NOT this tuna from the Tuna Guys. It is a chunk of tuna canned with very little liquid that you just flake in with the tuna. I am in no way affiliated with this company just love it that much. It is pricey ($1.98 can) but so worth the $$. I have several friends with whom we split a case. I have never eaten anything from them but the tuna but they also sell crab, salmon, shrimp etc. If you want the best tuna ever look them up on the web. You will not need anything with this tuna but a fork!

    Tuna, cubed avocado, fresh dill and lemon juice. It's the best. I like to stuff into a tomato. My husband eats it as a sandwich or with crackers.

    In New Zealand we have really yummy sealord tuna lite with sundried tomato and basil, only about 70 calories and 14 g of protein, very nice on a sandwich, prob would go well in a salad too. Doesn't taste dry, and hasn't got much salt either. Maybe you also have some flavoured canned tuna.

    Mix cottage cheese in it, trust me it's good!

    I couldn't agree more-cottage cheese and tuna is the future. Add some black pepper and fresh chives (or spring onions) for a bit of a twist.

    I now have a tuna craving-wish I was having it for lunch now.

    Plain low-fat yogurt, NOT Greek since that has like 4x more cals and you can't claim it to be a better protein source esp. when you are talking about a 1-2 tbsp meal. Greek yogurt is also 3x the price, haven't found a reason to be a fan yet!
