Tuna is one of those pantry staples we always seem to have around, but we can’t eat tuna sandwiches for every meal. Tuna’s cheap, easy, and it doesn’t expire quickly, but did you know it’s ideal for last-minute meals? There’s so much more you can do with a can of tuna and these four ideas will help get you started.

Tuna + Cheese

Sure, tuna sandwiches are boring, but by simply adding cheese it makes it so much tastier! If you’re feeling extra adventurous, you can swap tuna with crab to make a tuna rangoon.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B94uTg5FrGz/

Tuna + Egg

The classic Nicoise salad pairs tuna with egg and if you want to go all out, add lentils, white beans, green beans, capers, and olives.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B7Jf_8aANrv/

Tuna + Bread

Spice up your avocado toast by putting a can of tuna in it. Just mash the avocado and mix it with olive oil, salt, pepper, and a can of tuna. You can also try to make a tuna burger by mixing a can of tuna with breadcrumbs, mayo, and egg.

https://www.instagram.com/p/Bbvj90UHGEC/

Tuna + Pasta

We love pasta, but this delicious food doesn’t have the protein we need. Adding a can of tuna to cold pasta and mixing it with mayo and raw vegetables will help you get the protein you need. You can also make a hot meal with tuna by mixing it with pasta sauce as you heat it or combining it with olive oil capers, olives, and herbs.

Eating healthy is easier said than done – it seems like every tasty healthy meal is almost impossible to make.

With some of the best recipes in the world, though, eating healthy has never been easier – or more delicious!

Black Bean, Cilantro, And Avocado Quesadillas

Who doesn’t love quesadillas?! Not only are these black bean, cilantro, and avocado quesadillas mouth-wateringly good, they’re also really healthy.

Instagram/@joy_joy11

What you’ll need:

One 15-ounce can black beans, no salt added, rinsed and drained, liquid reserved (or 1¾ cups cooked)
1 medium tomato, diced
½ small chile pepper (e.g., jalapeño, Anaheim), finely diced
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 medium garlic clove, minced
¼ cup finely diced fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
Eight 6-inch corn tortillas
¼ cup plant-based shredded cheese, optional

How you’ll do it:

1. In a small mixing bowl, crush the beans with a potato masher or fork, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons of the reserved bean liquid to make a thick, lumpy mixture.
2. Add the tomato, chile pepper, lemon juice, garlic, and cilantro to the beans and mix well.
3. Heat 1 teaspoon of the olive oil in a large skillet.
4. Spread ½ cup of the bean mixture onto two tortillas smoothly. Place them in the skillet, bean side up. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon of cheese, if desired. Top with another tortilla. Cook the quesadillas over medium heat for about 4 minutes, until the bottom side is browned. Turn over carefully and cook the other side for about 4 minutes, until browned.
5. Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and garnish with avocado slices and plant-based sour cream, if desired. Repeat the process again to make 4 quesadillas.

This recipe is geared towards beginners, serves up to 4 people, and only takes about a half hour to make. Perfect for a quick, nutritiously delicious meal!

Tuna Quinoa Cakes

Tuna gets a bad rap sometimes, healthy omega-3 fats that are proven to increase heart health and decrease overall inflammation.

Instagram/@nuts.about.taste

What you’ll need:

½ cup cooked, mashed sweet potato
2 cans tuna, drained
¾ cup cooked quinoa
¼ cup green onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 egg
¼ cup plain yogurt
1 tablespoon mustard
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
½ cup breadcrumbs

2. Add remaining ingredients and stir until well combined.
3. Using your hands, form into 6 cakes.
4. Place on a greased baking sheet and bake at 400 degrees for 20 min, flipping once.

These tuna quinoa cakes are a great snack or meal if you make enough. This recipe will give you enough to serve up to 6 people and shouldn’t take you more than 25 minutes to make.

Thai Salad Bowl

Fresh, filling, and full of healthy ingredients that will fully satisfy your appetite for a tasty meal. The vegetables give the salad a nice crunch and it pairs beautifully with the spice from the green curry and peanut dressing.

Instagram/@chloescleancuisine

What you’ll need for the salad dressing:

1 tablespoon green curry paste
1/4 cup natural peanut butter
1 teaspoon chopped, fresh ginger
2 teaspoons honey
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 cup cilantro, lightly packed
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoon water
Kosher salt, to taste

What you’ll need for the salad:

4 cups lettuce, washed and chopped (romaine or hearty baby lettuces work well)
2 cups shredded cabbage, washed
1 red bell pepper, washed, cored and thinly sliced
4 green onions, white and light green parts only, washed, thinly sliced
1 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves
2 cups shredded carrots, washed
2 cups cooked quinoa
1/4 cup peanuts, roughly chopped

How you’ll do it:

1. For the salad dressing: Combine all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Note – alternatively, ingredients can be whisked together in a small bowl.
2. To make the salad: Place the lettuce in the bottom of a large mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredients and the salad dressing and toss to coat. Alternatively, salad can be served in a large bowl or on a platter and dressing can be served on the side.

Even a complete kitchen newbie can whip this salad up in 30 minutes or less and it’s a great meal to pack away for lunch at work or on-the-go.

There you have it! Eating healthy is completely doable and you won’t be missing out on anything with these incredibly satiating dishes.
