Then some mayo but just about a tablespoon or so. Also, if you like it a little bit spicy you can cut up a serrano pepper and let it sit in lemon juice for a few minutes and add it all in.

You can do this with just about any type of chicken, tuna, etc. I have had gastric bypass and use tuna a great deal to get in my much needed protein. You can also make tuna cakes. Use one egg, smash crackers and mix with tuna. Then, use Pam to coat skillet and cook until cripsy brown around the edges.

Lately I've taken to chopping up different things and adding them, such as pepperoncini (or banana peppers), which gives it a kick; next I am adding tarragon to that.

Sometimes I would add more yogurt and eat it just like that as a snack. You could also try getting the smaller cans of tuna that come in flavours. My favourite is the tomato & onion flavour.

I combine Tuna, chopped red onion, sliced celery and cannelini beans with olive oil , salt & pepper and lemon juice. This is very high in protein and extremely flavorful. Mangia !
