Tuna, to me has always been a super de duper easy way to make a quick and fast meal whether it be lunch time as a sandwich or dinner time as a casserole.
Especially now due to these economical times, it allows families to feed one another on the cheap. Sounds pretty good to me.
If you need some new different and esay ways to incorporate tuna in your meals here are a few different recipes.
So try these 8 and let me know what you think…
1. Pasta salad. Cold pasta salad with crisp fresh veggies, a light vinaigrette, and flecks of tuna is a great alternative to pasta salad with chicken.
2. Tuna croquettes or even tuna on crackers. My kids love these and they are soooo easy. Need a tuna coquette recipe try this Alton Brown’s.
3. Tuna Casserole. Just add noodles, cheese, and cream, and you have a great hearty meal.
4. Tuna Melts. Yummy! These are my favorite. Prepare your tuna to your liking and add your favorite cheese, I use swiss, then broil it and its ready to go. I always add a little hot sauce to kick it up a notch. 😉
5. Tuna Salad. With this recipe you can add either mayo or just go with light salad dressing.
6. Tuna alone. Just add some soy sauce.
7. Stuffed Tuna and Cheese Potatoes. Just like a twice baked potatoes just add tuna and your mixings and ready to serve.
8. Try a Nicoise Salad. Do as the French do… just chop up some potatoes, green beans, hard-boiled eggs, and chunks of tuna. C’est tres bon!
Do you have any ideas?
