Tuna Burgers- using canned tuna
I found this recipe on allrecipes.com... I substituted light Miracle Whip for regular mayonnaise, which along with ketchup and other seasonings gave this a nice tangy flavor... Excellent cheap meal!
Minutes to Prepare: 45Minutes to Cook: 8Number of Servings: 8
Ingredients
2 six oz cans Tuna, in water
2 large eGgs
1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1/3 cup minced onion
1/4 cup chopped red bell peppers
1/2 cup light miracle whip
4 tbsps ketchup
1 tsp dill weed, dry
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Hot pepper sauce to taste (3 dashes)
Worcestershire sauce to tast (3 dashes)
Directions
1. Combine tuna, egg, bread crumbs, onion, celery, red bell pepper, mayonnaise, chili sauce, dill, salt, pepper, hot pepper sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to make the patties easier to handle, if desired.
2. Shape into 8 patties (mixture will be very soft and delicate).
3. Coat a non-stick skillet with cooking spray; fry tuna patties for about 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until cooked through. These are fragile, so be careful when turning them.
Serve on buns with tomato slices and lettuce leaves, if desired.

a box of mac and cheese, any brand. make it a stir in the tuna. Its yummy, I just add some pepper.
In our house growing up we call this "red neck casserole" and it included a can of drained peas. Love it!!!

I like to make something close to a Salade Nicoise . . . the only essential ingredients of which are lettuce, tuna, green beans, and boiled potatoes.

Mac & Cheese w/tuna and peas is one of my son's favorite meals. We use frozen peas - added when you boil the macaroni0 -
Tuna (choose those in mineral water) in pasta (fettucini or capellini) with herbs (dill, oregano, parsley), with garlic.
Tuna with egg (hard boiled) and potato salad - add a dash of salt and pepper and spoonful of low fat mayo
Mix your tuna with low fat mayo, salt and pepper - on a toasted whole wheat bread, lay with cucumber and tomato.
Hard boiled egg filled with tuna mix (mix the egg yolk with tuna and mayo - add pepper and salt), refill your hard boiled egg with the tuna mix.0 -
Straight from the can.0

My ex. used to eat tuna and cottage cheese. It was so so.0

1) tuna out of can with all brine water/oil drained (I prefer the one without oil)
2) squeeze one whole lemon (big one)
3) mix with plain boiled rice (2/3 of the Tuna by volume)
4) just tiny pinch of salt
If required heat using microwave.

I mix it with a little bit of Mayo..half a tbsp and put it on a bowl full of greens or spinach and eat....don't need dressing as the mayo takes care of that. It's simple and delish...0

I've been eating this for lunch a lot:
Half a can of tuna + half a mashed avocado, (healthier than mayonnaise ;P,) with some tabasco~ I make a sandwich out of it ^^.

love tuna. i like it with a tin of tomatoes, pasta and bit of cream cheese/creme fraiche. with a jacket potato you cant beat it, pitta pizzas, with rice, sweetcorn and soy sauce. a tuna and cheese toastie is beautiful but not the healthy option (sadly)0

Mash avocado and mix in tuna and chilli sauce (or, we buy tuna with chilli oil). Add a bit of lemon juice and cracked pepper and use it in a sandwich or as a dip, or it would probably be great wrapped up in lettuce leaves for a snack.
Last night's dinner was a home made tomato sauce (onion, garlic, capsicum, zucchini, mushroom, wine, tinned tomato) with a can of (chilli) tuna mixed through. Served with pasta, but good with rice or just on it's own.
Baked potato with tuna, shredded lettuce and a bit of grated cheese.
Tuna patties - tuna mixed with mashed potato, grated veggies (zucchini, carrot, onion) and an egg. Pan fry in a non stick pan.0 -
