Tuna recipes?????????????????

stabbats · 12-02-2003, 06:37 PM

I'm wondering the different ways everyone eats their tuna? Obviously the best way to eat tuna is right from the can (which I normally do) but i'm getting sick of eating it this way (bad on the breath too) and am looking for new ways of having it. I would hate to kill it with mayo (even lite). Also, if you have it on a roll (lets just say from a deli) and it's not drowning in mayo.....is it a good option for lunch? or is the bread and the mayo ruining its benefits?

donescobar2000 · 12-02-2003, 06:49 PM

Do yourself a favor and buy the new flavored packets. Yum!

Deeznuts · 12-02-2003, 07:50 PM

Agreed the Tuna packets are great...less water and less fishy tasting

I've discovered hot sauce on tuna is pretty good. If you get bored with tuna, canned chicken isn't that bad either, and it still has 0 carbs.

Randy · 12-02-2003, 08:42 PM

Well for a few added calories....Mix some tuna with a few onions if desired, maybe just a bit of mayo, drop on whole wheat bread and stick in oven with a couple strips of sliced green peppers (You can get them in a can) . The grilled tuna and peppers are wonderful... If you don't care about the cheese factor, that makes it even better....

KataMaStEr · 12-02-2003, 08:43 PM

I usually add green peas & a tbs of olive oil, sometimes ever a few slices of onion.

plouffe · 12-02-2003, 09:10 PM

I normally eat it out of the can.. but

Maccoroni + Tuna + Onions + Cellery*+ Mayo

Its good

Leslie · 12-02-2003, 09:13 PM

I made this and will never eat tuna out of the can again:

Fry some chopped onion in Pam
Add tuna
Stir til tuna is lightly browned
Add Mayo (FF, low fat or full fat depending on your diet)
Stir till brown
Add 1/2 c shredded cheese ( I used Mozzerella)
Cover
Flip to brown other side

YUMMY

Jill · 12-02-2003, 09:33 PM

Tuna-drain, 1 egg or white, dry oats, Ms.dash, salt and pepper to taste. Mix all together, forms 2 patties. Cook in pam sprayed frying pan or george forman grill. Tuna Burgers!

Rocco32 · 12-02-2003, 10:57 PM

Wow, all this is renewing my interest in Tuna!

Randy · 12-02-2003, 10:58 PM

Screw the Tuna, let's talk about Ice Cream instead

When we buy ice cream I melt it, put it on my ice cream maker machine and add protein. And there, I got protein ice cream

It’s not bad at all

Randy · 12-03-2003, 01:00 AM

Yeah, I use ice cream to make protein shakes too... If your going to abuse, you might as well mix some good along with the bad right?

Randy · 12-03-2003, 01:02 AM

My favorite ice cream is Baskin Robbins Mint n Chip....

Rocco32 · 12-03-2003, 06:30 AM

That was a pretty good whore there guys! Off the subject, but still kinda on it! Maybe I should take some lessons.

I tried another version of this today. It was really good. Thanks for the idea Leslie!

Fry tuna in pan w/ Pam, some garlic, mushrooms, olive spread and a litte FF Cheddar Cheese.

**calalily1972** · 12-03-2003, 12:30 PM

I'm gonna try this but I'll have to use FF cheese and l/f mayo

Rocco32 · 12-03-2003, 02:03 PM

You'll like it Jodi!

Premo55 · 12-03-2003, 02:07 PM

You know, I mix my tuna with Nayonnaise (soy-based mayo substitute), wheat bran for fiber, paprika, Splenda, and mashed egg whites. It's actually really good. People just look at me funny when I put Splenda in tuna.

Peace.

Rocco32 · 12-03-2003, 02:08 PM

I can understand their confusion!

Premo55 · 12-03-2003, 02:12 PM

I dunno, I love Splenda. I am seriously addicted at an average of 12 packets a day. I use the liquid form, too.

Peace.

donescobar2000 · 12-03-2003, 02:14 PM

Wow! Thats a lot compared to me. I use no more than a 1/2 tbsp per day.

Premo55 · 12-03-2003, 02:16 PM

I have a real problem with artificial sweeteners, man. Some days I can go above 15-18 packs. It's a problem, y'all, how do you get by using so little Splenda, anyway? How do you flavour your oats/salad dressings etc.?

Peace.

Rocco32 · 12-03-2003, 02:17 PM

I use Splenda about once a month. That's when I eat grapefruit!

swolean · 12-03-2003, 02:18 PM

dude, I just do this:
two cans in a blender and two cups of milk
fast and easy (lazy)

I've never seen packets?

Premo55 · 12-03-2003, 02:19 PM

EWWWWWWWWW TUNA AND MILK?

Peaec.

Rocco32 · 12-03-2003, 02:20 PM

I haven't seen packets either. Regular stores carry it?

**calalily1972** · 12-03-2003, 02:24 PM

The packets are too damn expensive for me

I can get 2 whole cans of Albacore for the same price as 1 packet.

I no longer crave sweets so I don't use much. I just eat my food plain. I rarely use salt also but I love my healthy food. What I do crave is fatty food though but I don't give in. When you don't have something for a long time you no longer want it.

Randy · 12-03-2003, 05:48 PM

Donescobar,

I am the same fortunately. Since my diet plan, I rarely crave sweets anymore . Another good thing is that I was never one to use sweeteners in my coffee or anything else for that matter. I drink my coffee black and drink my tea plain. One thing I really noticed about me since the diet is that once your stomach shrinks, your cravings for large quantities of food diminish. Well at least for me. Prior to my diet when I used to be a junk food junky, that is all I would do is eat eat eat. The funny thing is that I was never satisified. I always had the urge to eat. Now after watching my diet, my stomach has shrunk dramatically and after eating small amounts every 2-3 hours I am satisfied... That along with the benefits of watching your muscles grow through your workouts is a definate motivation factor.

But those pizza's are still always a good thing at least once a week.

MeLo · 12-04-2003, 05:57 AM

Yep =) those pizzas, i order some type of 'supreme' once a week. it's a real lay off. =D

Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...
