TUNA PIZZA - Chef Thierry
Here's one of my post-workout favorites, (good anytime though), and one that is sure to offend your office mates during lunch. One whole wheat pita bread
1/2 cup non fat cottage cheese
1 can Tuna, (in water if dieting)
1 Roma tomato
seasoning like salt. pepper, garlic and basil
Spread the cottage cheese all over the pita uniformly. Drain the tuna and spread all over the "pie" Slice the tomato thinly and layer on top of the tuna. season with whatever you want Put in the oven or microwave until the desired temperature. The whole room should smell like tuna and you can now eat in peace.
APPROX: 450 Cals., 54 g protein, 44g carbs, 3 g fat
Brushing a little olive oil on the pita before cheese is delicious. and of course sprinkling a litle parmesan on is a-ok too. AHHHHHH! now my keyboard smells like tuna. Ain't life grand?
TUNA STICKS - Chef Robert Duncan
1 can tuna
1/2 small carrot (grated)
1/2 celery stalk (sliced dime thin)
2 to 3 tbsp spicey mustard (depends how spicey you want it)
1 tbsp cottage cheese (fat free if needed)
1 tbsp sour cream (fat free if needed)
1 tbsp minced or ground garlic >
spices to taste (taste the final concoction first so that you can decide what you think will fit your taste)
Stir and mix all ingredients vigoriously so as to get a good pump. Spread the mixture on celery stalks (in the groove silly, not the convex side), and of course use your fingers its easier and fun as well. Eat, enjoy, and grow.
This actually is one hell of a good tasting snack.
TUNA LOAF- Chef Brian Silver(stolen, er, critiqued from the Atkins cookbook)
Since I've got the Atkins' New Diet Cookbook sitting right here, (ISBN 0-87131-794-X) I thought I'd look up some TUNA recipes. And this one seemed particularly gross. Tuna Loaf
2 cups canned tuna
2 teaspoons diced onion
2 teaspoons capers
1 cup mayonaise
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon curry powder (optional)
Preheat oven to 350F. Drain fish. In a small bowl flake fish. Add onions and capers to fish. In a saucepan combine mayonaise, water, cream, salt and paprika. Stir until smooth. Add one half of the cream sauce to the fish and mix. Place mixture in buttered loaf pan or baking dish. Bake fo 30 minutes. Add curry to remaining sauce. To serve, slice fish loaf and spoon sauce over slices. Has to be one of the most disgusting things I have ever read.
At least the TUNA SHAKE doesn't have mayo and cream in it. I *have not* tried this, and I don't think I'm going to. But, I can tell you that the capers are optional. Brian.
HOLY SHIT I GOTTA BE IN CLASS IN 3 MINUTES, TUNA SALAD...BABY! -Chef Noel John Simpson

ARNOLD'S favorite muscle building tuna salad - Chef Ricky
I was going through some old cook books the other day, looking for a salmon recipe. Found an old book put out by a health organization. One of those where "celebrities" donate recipies. Found "Arnolds favorite muscle building tuna salad". Copied direct from the book.

2 soup spoons diced sweet onions
2 soup spoons diced green pepper
2 soup spoons diced celery
2 soup spoons diced tomato
1 soup spoon Kraft fat-free mayonnaise(yeah, you don't wanna OVERDO the fat here)
2 soup spoons safflower oil
4 soup spoons vinegar
Drain cans of tuna, combine in bowl with rest of ingredients, mix gently, chill. Serve on oat, or potato bread, with slices of bermuda onion, tomato and lettuce leaves. Makes 2 sandwiches. The guy apparently liked / likes oil. (that's Arnold Ziffle not the OAK)

TUNA MIX- Chef ? - Steve O'Donnell
Equal parts tuna and cottage cheese
mix in some dill weed, salt & pepper, and a slight dash of lemon juice.

CREAMY TUNA VEGETABLE CHOWDER- From Chef Angela "Pump till ya Puke" Pahlow
1/4 c. butter
1 c. chopped onion
1/4 c. flour
4 c. milk (I think 4 c. heavy whipping cream, w/o th flour, will work just as well, gotta check w/hubby the "real" chef)
1 - 10 oz pkg frozen broccoli
1 - 6.5 oz can TUNA (I'd go w/2 cans, myself)
2 tbsp chives
1.5 tsp salt
.5 tsp celery salt
1 c. sour cream
Saute onions in butter til translucent. Add milk/flour or heavy cream gradually - cook over med heat until the mix thickens slightly. Add rest of ingredients ex. sour cream. Cook covered 8-10 min. Stir in sour cream. Heat but do not boil. Should last awhile if there's only 2 of you.
Could call this the "No way you can low-fat this one" TUNA SOUP???? Don't know, but it sure is good! - Angela
THE CHICO STATE POST WORKOUT TUNA SHAKE - Chef Rocky Bemis
One 6-7 oz. can tuna in water,drained
2 cups orange juice, preferably pulpless
4-5 ice cubes
Blend on "frappe" (don't you love that word) for about 2 minutes. Pour into chilled mug, or beer bong if from Chico, and guzzle.
Probably the best of the tuna shake options for the tuna shake skeptic as all you taste is OJ until you're finished, then the aftertaste creeps up on you.
TUNA BURGERS - Chef Brian Silver
1 Can Tuna (6 oz, 170g)
1/4 cup bread crumbs
Celery,
chopped Onion,
chopped 1 large egg
Pepper to taste.
Combine all the ingredients well. Form into 2 patties and fry until brown in Olive Oil over medium heat. Works best in a non-stick pan.
Notes: Recipe can be doubled or tripled to account for feeding a member of the D/FW Assault Crew.
Use as much celery and onion as you like. I like lots of large chunks of onion. You can use "seasoned" bread crumbs too. Italian seasoned crumbs make a nice burger. I don't add salt because I think the Tuna has enough. If you like things salty, add some salt.
You can fry in butter, margerine or Pam if you like. I like Olive Oil. Goes well with the Tuna. Be sure to use a non-stick pan if you're using Pam.
You can serve these any way you like. I like them on a bun with mustard and mayo.
Other possible additions: Garlic or Garlic Powder Chile Peppers Cheese - Either on top like a cheese burger - Or add some grated cheese to the mix
Brian.

Then chop it in sections and put them in a zip-lock baggy and VAVAVAVOOOM. TUNA powered lunch snacks. Yum/yum.

TUNA-CURRY SOUFFLE - Chef Thomas J. Farish
I¹ve made this soufflé many times with either tiny shrimp or flaked salmon. My wife noticed how much tuna I¹ve been eating and said, ³Why not a tuna souffle?². It was actually very good! Here is the recipe:
3 eggs (separated)
2 TBL butter (not margarine)
2 TBL flour
1 cup of 2% milk
1 small can tuna drained in a strainer
1-2 green onions
2 tsp curry powder (or garam masala)
1/4 cup of any other chopped veggies you like (I use carrots or celery)
Preheat oven to 400 F. Grease a soufflé pan and prepare top paper and string. Open tuna and drain in a strainer. (You need it to be fairly dry). Chop onions and other veggies. Separate the eggs, and beat yolks until they are lemon-colored. Melt butter in saucepan until bubbly. Add flour and stir until combined. This is a roux (³roo²). Cook the roux until it begins to darken slightly and smells like popcorn. While the butter and flour are cooking, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Add milk to the roux 1/4 cup at a time, stirring well. As this cooks some more, finish beating the egg whites. When the mixture thickens, add egg yolks and stir in vigorously. Add curry, tuna and veggies and stir gently. Fold in egg whites (don¹t stir it a lot!) and pour into soufflé pan. Wrap paper around top of pan and tie with string. Put pan into oven. Immediately turn temp down to 350 F. Bake until done (about 35-40 minutes).
Serve immediately with a salad and cocktail sauce, ketchup, salsa or other condiments. Serves 4.
This works great here in the mountains at 6600 ft elevation. At sea level, adjust temp and time according to your cookbook. Enjoy!

1 6oz can chunk light tuna, thoroughly drained
1 1/2 cup water
2/3 scoop Lemon/Lime Gatorade mix (enough for 12 oz)
1 small-medium banana
cinnamon to taste...
Chuck it in the blender and run on low speed until mixed, then on liquify for 45 seconds or so until smooth and lightly whipped. (If you start on liquify, you better be holding the blender down. :)
If you don't have a banana handy, or just want some variety, substitute a small can of mixed fruit (or any random fruit for that matter). You can also substitute orange juice for the water and Gatorade.

1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup diced red pepper
Place beans, tuna, garlic, lemon juice, mayo, and ricotta in food processor; blend till combined but still chunky. Put in bowl, stir in rest of ingredients.

Pour eggs into pan. Spread tuna, tomato, onion, asparagus, cheese, etc. evenly about egg mixture in pan. Add salt and/or pepper to taste. Covering pan is optional.

TUNA PIZZA Number 2- Chef Joseph Bruce Doud
One loaf Italian Bread
One can Tuna
Ragu Vegetable Sauce
Pack of Pizza Cheese
From what I understand, Italian Bread is ordinarily fat free. Some bakeries in the grocery stores may add butter or something. A can of tuna in water has 1.5 grams of fat and 32.5 grams of protein. Ragu Vegetable Sauce is sold in a Fat Free version. Healthly choice Pizza Cheese is sold in a Fat Free version; the cheese is sold in Two Cup quantity with a total of 72 grams of protein for the pack . . .
Slice up the bread, put it into the oven to harden a bit. Mix the tuna with the vegetable sauce (I prefer this instead of mayo). Put the saucy tuna on the bread slices. Sprinkle the pizza cheese on top. Bake until cheese is melted. Voila! Tuna Pizza!

The whole room should smell like tuna and you can now eat in peace.
APPROX: 450 Cals., 54 g protein, 44g carbs, 3 g fat
Brushing a little olive oil on the pita before cheese is delicious. and of course sprinkling a litle parmesan on is a-ok too. AHHHHHH! now my keyboard smells like tuna. Ain't life grand?

TUNA LOAF- Chef Brian Silver(stolen, er, critiqued from the Atkins cookbook)
Since I've got the Atkins' New Diet Cookbook sitting right here, (ISBN 0-87131-794-X) I thought I'd look up some TUNA recipes. And this one seemed particularly gross. Tuna Loaf
2 cups canned tuna
2 teaspoons diced onion
2 teaspoons capers
1 cup mayonaise
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon curry powder (optional)
Preheat oven to 350F. Drain fish. In a small bowl flake fish. Add onions and capers to fish. In a saucepan combine mayonaise, water, cream, salt and paprika. Stir until smooth. Add one half of the cream sauce to the fish and mix. Place mixture in buttered loaf pan or baking dish. Bake fo 30 minutes. Add curry to remaining sauce. To serve, slice fish loaf and spoon sauce over slices. Has to be one of the most disgusting things I have ever read.
At least the TUNA SHAKE doesn't have mayo and cream in it. I *have not* tried this, and I don't think I'm going to. But, I can tell you that the capers are optional. Brian.

4 soup spoons vinegar
Drain cans of tuna, combine in bowl with rest of ingredients, mix gently, chill. Serve on oat, or potato bread, with slices of bermuda onion, tomato and lettuce leaves. Makes 2 sandwiches. The guy apparently liked / likes oil. (that's Arnold Ziffle not the OAK)

CREAMY TUNA VEGETABLE CHOWDER- From Chef Angela "Pump till ya Puke" Pahlow
1/4 c. butter
1 c. chopped onion
1/4 c. flour
4 c. milk (I think 4 c. heavy whipping cream, w/o th flour, will work just as well, gotta check w/hubby the "real" chef)
1 - 10 oz pkg frozen broccoli
1 - 6.5 oz can TUNA (I'd go w/2 cans, myself)
2 tbsp chives
1.5 tsp salt
.5 tsp celery salt
1 c. sour cream
Saute onions in butter til translucent. Add milk/flour or heavy cream gradually - cook over med heat until the mix thickens slightly. Add rest of ingredients ex. sour cream. Cook covered 8-10 min. Stir in sour cream. Heat but do not boil. Should last awhile if there's only 2 of you.
Could call this the "No way you can low-fat this one" TUNA SOUP???? Don't know, but it sure is good! - Angela
THE CHICO STATE POST WORKOUT TUNA SHAKE - Chef Rocky Bemis
One 6-7 oz. can tuna in water,drained
2 cups orange juice, preferably pulpless
4-5 ice cubes
Blend on "frappe" (don't you love that word) for about 2 minutes. Pour into chilled mug, or beer bong if from Chico, and guzzle.
Probably the best of the tuna shake options for the tuna shake skeptic as all you taste is OJ until you're finished, then the aftertaste creeps up on you.
TUNA BURGERS - Chef Brian Silver
1 Can Tuna (6 oz, 170g)
1/4 cup bread crumbs
Celery,
chopped Onion,
chopped 1 large egg
Pepper to taste.
Combine all the ingredients well. Form into 2 patties and fry until brown in Olive Oil over medium heat. Works best in a non-stick pan.
Notes: Recipe can be doubled or tripled to account for feeding a member of the D/FW Assault Crew.
Use as much celery and onion as you like. I like lots of large chunks of onion. You can use "seasoned" bread crumbs too. Italian seasoned crumbs make a nice burger. I don't add salt because I think the Tuna has enough. If you like things salty, add some salt.
You can fry in butter, margerine or Pam if you like. I like Olive Oil. Goes well with the Tuna. Be sure to use a non-stick pan if you're using Pam.
You can serve these any way you like. I like them on a bun with mustard and mayo.
Other possible additions: Garlic or Garlic Powder Chile Peppers Cheese - Either on top like a cheese burger - Or add some grated cheese to the mix

Then chop it in sections and put them in a zip-lock baggy and VAVAVAVOOOM. TUNA powered lunch snacks. Yum/yum.

TUNA-CURRY SOUFFLE - Chef Thomas J. Farish
I¹ve made this soufflé many times with either tiny shrimp or flaked salmon. My wife noticed how much tuna I¹ve been eating and said, ³Why not a tuna souffle?². It was actually very good! Here is the recipe:
3 eggs (separated)
2 TBL butter (not margarine)
2 TBL flour
1 cup of 2% milk
1 small can tuna drained in a strainer
1-2 green onions
2 tsp curry powder (or garam masala)
1/4 cup of any other chopped veggies you like (I use carrots or celery)
Preheat oven to 400 F. Grease a soufflé pan and prepare top paper and string. Open tuna and drain in a strainer. (You need it to be fairly dry). Chop onions and other veggies. Separate the eggs, and beat yolks until they are lemon-colored. Melt butter in saucepan until bubbly. Add flour and stir until combined. This is a roux (³roo²). Cook the roux until it begins to darken slightly and smells like popcorn. While the butter and flour are cooking, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Add milk to the roux 1/4 cup at a time, stirring well. As this cooks some more, finish beating the egg whites. When the mixture thickens, add egg yolks and stir in vigorously. Add curry, tuna and veggies and stir gently. Fold in egg whites (don¹t stir it a lot!) and pour into soufflé pan. Wrap paper around top of pan and tie with string. Put pan into oven. Immediately turn temp down to 350 F. Bake until done (about 35-40 minutes).
Serve immediately with a salad and cocktail sauce, ketchup, salsa or other condiments. Serves 4.
This works great here in the mountains at 6600 ft elevation. At sea level, adjust temp and time according to your cookbook. Enjoy!

TUNA Banana Shake - Larry D. Fishel
1 6oz can chunk light tuna, thoroughly drained
1 1/2 cup water
2/3 scoop Lemon/Lime Gatorade mix (enough for 12 oz)
1 small-medium banana
cinnamon to taste...
Chuck it in the blender and run on low speed until mixed, then on liquify for 45 seconds or so until smooth and lightly whipped. (If you start on liquify, you better be holding the blender down. :)
If you don't have a banana handy, or just want some variety, substitute a small can of mixed fruit (or any random fruit for that matter). You can also substitute orange juice for the water and Gatorade.
TUNA and White-Bean Spread - Chef Krista Scott-Dixon
1 cup canned or cooked white kidney beans, drained
1 can (6.5 oz) tuna in water, drained
1 1/2 tsp minced garlic
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp light mayo
1/4 cup 5% ricotta cheese (but I'd use cottage cheese... of course)
3 tbsp minced red onion
1 tsp dried dill
1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup diced red pepper
Place beans, tuna, garlic, lemon juice, mayo, and ricotta in food processor; blend till combined but still chunky. Put in bowl, stir in rest of ingredients. I'd spread this over pumpernickel bread (the real stuff that's like black corkboard, not the fake stuff which is just brown rye---but of course you can use any bread you want, hell use crackers for all I care!).
TUNA Omelet - Chef Trevor Coverley
1 - 6 oz. can solid white tuna in water - drained
3 large grade A eggs or 5 egg whites with 1 yolk (EggBeaters work great too)
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp. of extra virgin olive oil or Pam type substance
1/4 cup chopped tomato
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped Asparagus
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese(or cheese or choice)
Add anything else you might add to an omelet
dash salt and pepper
Beat eggs until blended. Add milk to eggs. Beat some more. Break up tuna to desired texture. In a large frying pan add olive oil/Pam stuff. Heat pan to medium-low(lower is better). Pour eggs into pan. Spread tuna, tomato, onion, asparagus, cheese, etc. evenly about egg mixture in pan. Add salt and/or pepper to taste. Covering pan is optional. Covering pan tends to give omelet a fluffy texture. Cook until desired consistency. Fold omelet and eat. TUNA - Its not just for breakfast anymore.
TUNA PIZZA Number 2- Chef Joseph Bruce Doud
One loaf Italian Bread
One can Tuna
Ragu Vegetable Sauce
Pack of Pizza Cheese
From what I understand, Italian Bread is ordinarily fat free. Some bakeries in the grocery stores may add butter or something. A can of tuna in water has 1.5 grams of fat and 32.5 grams of protein. Ragu Vegetable Sauce is sold in a Fat Free version. Healthly choice Pizza Cheese is sold in a Fat Free version; the cheese is sold in Two Cup quantity with a total of 72 grams of protein for the pack . . .
Slice up the bread, put it into the oven to harden a bit. Mix the tuna with the vegetable sauce (I prefer this instead of mayo). Put the saucy tuna on the bread slices. Sprinkle the pizza cheese on top. Bake until cheese is melted. Voila! Tuna Pizza!
