Try it with a little salsa (if on the diet)or chop up some red or orange peppers, tomato & onion(very fine). I buy Ahi (sushi grade) tuna from the Seafood store. (one ten pound case 69.99) It is not as strong as canned. You can spice it and cook it through till just off pink. OR if its sushi quality it great seared in no stick pan (that means rare)with wasabi. YMMMMM This is not for everyone. If you want to try it I know P&C sells it as single serve in their fish freezer section. (my not be sushi quality so cook it through)

bb1fit Posts: 11,105 Joined: 2001/06/30	2003/04/20, 09:32 AM I agree with itrosi's point, tuna is tuna and always will be. It really sucks unless you mix it up real nice with mayo and onions and relish and all the bad stuff! I tried a recipe I found for tuna last night, thought it might be good... Tuna pattie...can of tuna, 1 eggwhite, 1/4 cup oats, some chopped onion, form and grill.... well, bad news, it sucked too!! LOL... Good luck to all with the tuna. I eat it because I am dedicated to my sport/contests, but otherwise I wouldn't touch it with a 10' pole! Does it come across that I HATE tuna?? LOL.... -------------- The one goal you will NEVER achieve is the one you never attempt.

I will look and see if I can find a more specific recipe because they were just as good cold as when first cooked.

London Posts: 176 Joined: 2003/01/10	2003/04/20, 03:13 PM I find that if you eat enough of something you eventually become accustomed to it.. I always liked tuna fish but HATED every other fish with a passion. Now I have been eating other fish once or twice a week and I can finally stand the taste. Same goes for me with brocolli and asparagus etc.. I hated em, but now that I eat them so often I have just gotten used to them. On the same point, I used to love pizza and burgers with bacon and cheese and now those foods are just too rich and greasy for me and make me feel slightly ill if I eat them.

BIGKATT Posts: 82 Joined: 2006/12/19	2007/01/20, 01:31 PM ""I find that if you eat enough of something you eventually become accustomed to it.. ." I agree. I eat it because it's high in protein and something fast to eat after a workout. Sometimes I mix it with relish and mayo, other times I just spread a light layer of mayo on the two slices of bread and eat it that way. You might try eating it with crackers... ============ Quoting from london: I find that if you eat enough of something you eventually become accustomed to it..

adalos Posts: 174 Joined: 2006/02/04	2007/01/21, 08:11 PM throw in some chopped up boiled eggs, onions, celery, lowfat mayo and seasonings of your choice and it becomes a lot more palatable. i mix up a bunch of it and use it as sandwiches, on top of salads, or just straight. also, if you check at your grocery store, most of them sell tuna packets in different variations like garlic & herb, spicey, lemon zest, etc. i prefer the garlic and herb, but you should try them all and see which you like best.
