I am constantly trying to find new things that are both tasty and are easy to make in high volume. Because I cook all of my meals ahead of time, I don’t want to spend a ton of time making them. After weeks of Chicken Thighs, it was time to make a change. Enter Tuna Salad.
I didn’t take many pictures of making it (its pretty boring), but I did take a lot of pictures eating it! Above I’ve put the tuna salad on top of a piece of Peanut Butter bread and toasted it with cheese. On the right is just the remainder of my serving with cheese on it.
Here is a picture of the tuna salad divided into Tupperware for the week.
This is just another example of me eating the tuna salad 🙂 Its perfectly fine by itself but if you have time and are bored you can spice it up. I have the peanut butter bread again but on the left I hollowed out a small green pepper and filled it with tuna salad. I baked that in the convection toaster oven. Each pepper is only around 100g so its not too many carbs and can help you get extra fiber in your diet.
Its not shown, but at the same time I made tuna salad, I also made chicken salad. Its the identical recipe except you cook some chicken and add that instead of tuna. The added benefit is that you can get two meals but only prep for one.

My favorite tuna salad involves adding tuna to spinach dip. So good there are no words.
With the 7 containers of tuna, is that 7 x 6oz tins, or 7 tins (6oz total)?
Whay if I wanted to make 10 servings so that this could feed 2 people for 5 days? (like your other 5day meals)
