This is something you would see in Rachael Ray’s 30 minute cookbook or on one of Rachael Ray’s tv shows.
It is simple, quick and tastes delicious.
I have to give credit to Beth Rea for providing me with this recipe and it is a great lunch when I am in a hurry and don’t have much time to eat.
Mix tuna packed in water as you like it:
Lite mayo
any spices you like
relish
cilantro
Slice red (or yellow, orange, green) bell pepper in half and remove seeds. Put tuna mixture into bell pepper and enjoy a light, easy, healthy meal.
Now I didn’t put quantities in this recipe because everyone likes their tuna salad mixed differently. I suggest you start with 2 cans of tuna packed in water and then mix 1 Tbsp of lite mayo and 1 Tbsp of relish with the tuna. Then continue to add small amounts of each until it becomes the consistency you desire.
Then add a small amount of cliantro and taste. Continue to add cliantro until it meets your taste levels. You can do the same with any other spices that you like to add to tuna dishes. Just remember to start with small amounts and then taste because too much of any one spice could ruin the entire meal.
Yours in good health,

Thank you for the recipe…If you like a little more flavor and spice, do the tuna like ceviche, I don’t use mayo…just cut up some onion, I like purple or green onions, jalapeno pepper, tomato, cilantro, twist of lime or lemon,olive oil and taragon vinegar or whatever vinegar you like. Sea salt and garlic salt to taste or what other spices you like. You can dice up celery or cucumber if you like. I always keep fresh pico de gallo which is, diced onion, tomatoe, jalapeno, cerrano and I put habanero peppers in mine, cilantro. I put it on all my stuff for some flavor and heat. Keeps the metabo going.
I like that!!
That sounds good. I will have to give it a try.

Two of my favorite foods. Togehter. Wasn’t sure it was possible. Can’t wait.
That’s great. Now try this twist. I’ve started using plain yogurt more and more places where I used to use mayo and here would be one of them Use instead or incombination with mayo to reduse the fat. Use in tuna salad, chicken salad, potato salad, even on some sandwiches. Gives it a twist. reduces fat. increases protien. Give it a whirl and tell ME what you think. EWver rinse your cottage sheese? The ‘milk’ in the cottage cheese is acrtually added at the end of the process after the curds have been formed,l strained, and rinsed. Try rinsing the milk back off using a collinder or strainer. It’s real similar to to a crumbled fresh Mozzarella AND IT MELTS LIKE CHEESE and has much less fat. Use here in combination with your Tuna made with yogurt, use on salads. I like to make an egg white omlet with rinsed cottage cheese and pesto. Again, try it before you knock it!
Have a great day!
