Does anyone have a quick way to fix tuna salad. I've got a taste for a tuna sandwich and I'm not sure how much mayo to put in and how many points for how much.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I usually get 2 servings out of it this way. I put in half of a large pita (1.5 pts) so it's pretty low-point. 1moretime 05-29-2001, 03:02 PM Thanks, I'll have to try some this week. ShakeThoseHips 06-06-2001, 10:13 AM I've discovered that I can get away with a lot less mayo in tuna/chicken/egg salads than I previously thought. My husband and I split a regular 6-oz. can of light tuna packed in water (3 pts. for the whole can). I add chopped pickle and LOTS of chopped onion and black pepper, and I find 2 teaspoons of light mayo is really enough to hold the whole 2-serving recipe together and moisten it. So one serving is only 2 pts., not including whatever bread or crackers you choose. Did you know that "all-white" tuna has more fat and calories than "light" tuna? Bumby 06-06-2001, 03:40 PM I also have been able to get by with less mayo on my tuna than I once did. I figured out that one reason I was adding so much was that the tuna was bland and what it needed wasn't mayo but SALT. I think they must be salting the tuna less than they did once upon a time. I can't seem to get myself to tolerate anything but REAL mayo (although I eat many gross things other people won't touch, like fat free cheese), so tuna salad is a rare treat for me these days. vBulletin® v3.6.7, Copyright ©2000-2012, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
