I as many others don't eat enough fish so I try to get a can of tuna in my system every other day. But it really kills me how dry and boring it tastes.

Anyoke got a good way to make it taste good? As low calorie as possible but I am willing to forfeit a bit of my dinner if I necessary.

One of the recipe of my diet, nothing fancy but taste good for very good nutrional value:

Cook half portion green lens and half red rice (called "wild rice" sometimes) in salted boiling water.

Dice half an onion and cook it with the the oil from the tuna can in a hot pan. After few minutes add the tuna. Separate in small piece with a wooden spoon and cook for ten minutes.

When rice and lens are cooked, dry them, add to the pan, reduce heat to low and mix. Add herbs. Keep cooking and mixing for 4 minutes.

It also really depend the brand you buy. Try to take the cans cooked with olive oil or white wine.
