  • great recommendations, i am about to try the one with vinegar/oil dressing and tossed onions!
  • If you like mayo then use a little bit of mayo. It's only bad for you in large quantities and if you eat it all day everyday. I use just a little bit to trick my tastebucs into thinking it's really there. But for more flavor I also put in a little bit of spicy mustard and a spoonful of relish. It adds a lot of flavor.

    Word of caution. Beward of anything labed fat-free. It's loaded with sugar. There is no such thing as fat-free mayo, it simply does not exist in nature and it is concocted in a chemistry lab... the last place food should be prepared.
  • I mix tuna with fat-free yogurt, mustard, pickle relish, and whatever herbs are handy.
  • I use a bit of sour cream to hold it together, and lots of pickle relish and/or mustard (I actually sometimes buy a pickle relish that has mustard in it).
  • You might try mixing it with pasta sauce if you like an Italian-y flavor?
  • My fav way to eat tuna: mix it with finely chopped celery and apple cider vinegar! Delish!!
  • This thread has so many good ideas for my tuna that I can't wait to try. I normally eat it with some kind of mustard (I do love my mustard) but sometimes I'll eat it with salsa too. I'm thinking I might have to get adventerous and try both now.
  • and some light philadelphia cheese!
  • A few tablespoons of salsa. Doesn't "bind" it together like mayo will, but it adds a lot of flavor.
  • There are a lot of responses to this and I just don't have the time right now to read through them all! But I wanted to chime in with my favorite way to have tuna, in fact I ate this just yesterday!

    1 can tuna
    1 wedge laughing cow cheese
    somewhere around 1 tsp to 1 tbsp of mustard (my favorite is sweet and hot mustard)
    chopped onion
    chopped bell pepper
    chopped dill pickle
    liberal amounts of ground black pepper

    Delicious!
  • What people are posting sound delicious. I love tuna.

    I like my tuna spicy with jalapenos or Sriracha sauce.

    And I'll throw in whatever vegetables I have around and enjoy.
  • I love it with lemon on it. But it has to be fresh squeezed lemon. About a half one does it usually. I can't stand the bottled stuff...I also make sure I get the good stuff (tuna), not the cheap stuff...it just tastes better.
  • Albacore tuna, cut up home grown tomatoes, cucumbers and a boiled egg with some zesty fat free Italian dressing is quick and great!
  • thank you everyone!! i cant wait to try all these recipes now!!!
  • I like a little balsamic vinegar on mine
