How To Turn $1 Canned Tuna Into a Restaurant Meal (4 Ways)
This video is all about canned tuna. A can of tuna is an excellent source of protein and it can cost you as little as $1/can. These canned tuna dishes are easy and quick to make and they are as good as restaurant meals. All you need is some basic ingredients and some tuna. I made a tuna burger, a spicy tuna fried rice, some tuna pasta, and a (failed) tuna mayo onigiri.
Hope you'll enjoy!

Street-style tacos using canned tuna is also very simple and easy, and not to mention cheap and healthy. For anyone curious - tortilla, canned tuna, diced onions, fresh prepped or store bought Pico, cilantro, and a wedge’s worth of lime juice. If you want some additional flavor, you can add some paprika or chipotle powder, or some diced fruits like mango.

i love that idea! i used to make tuna salad using avocado instead of mayonaise etc. it was basically tuna guacamole! so satisfying and really bomb with chips
My 17 year old son is a powerlifter and plays football and baseball. He also has Type 1 Diabetes. He likes to eat super high protein and lower carb meals, or mostly complex carb meals. We tried each one of these and he loves them all. Most of all the pasta. My mom loved the patties. She makes them all the time now. These are great easy meals that are full of flavor and super budget friendly.
i just found your page. im a mom of 3 college kids. ill be sharing this to them and also trying out the recipes myself.. after years of cooking you run out of ideas. Your recipes seems very simple and i love the PRICE thank you and keep up the great work. i will be trying your tuna ideas soon. 6 cans in the pntry so HERE I GO!
Tuna mayo onigiri are pretty easy and yummy. Give them another try. For the filling: tuna, mayo and some soy sauce For the rice you can also use Jasmin rice. I had great success with it. Best when it's freshly cooked and still slightly warm so it's sticky. Add some salt to the rice either when cooking (to the cooking water) or before forming. Remember to wet your hands when forming. For this type of onigiri I would recommend not to fry them.

i make tuna onigiri often, its so good! one thing i do to 'upgrade' onigiri is season my rice w soy sauce, rice vinegar, hot sauce, etc. then wrap it in vietnamese rice paper and fry it that way.

I use salt water to wet my hands before shaping the onigiri. I’ve also followed sushi rice recipes, but there’s something oddly magical about the flavor imparted by the salt water.

Hallo
I tried making this tuna fried rice recipe, and dude i gotta say that it blew my mind! I havent had much experience in the kitchen aside from making a few simple dishes, but this thing is gotta be the best dish i made so far.
You have so many interesting videos that it would take me a lot of time to watch and I have 4 kids to feed meanwhile, but your way of cooking is just... 💕 Thank you, Kevin
Thank you so so much for this!! My mom and I struggle to figure out what’s for dinner or lunch, but you make everything so easy! Your channel constantly saves our lives 😂! Thank you!
Brilliant stuff Chef love it. Going to try them
For the tuna pasta try frying some onion with olive oil in a pan and add some canned tomatoes like a standard pasta sauce and then add the canned tuna. I make it when I have nothing else in the fridge and it is kinda like a tuna amatriciana
Wonderful ! This warms my heart …simple and tasty .
Tuna in oil tastes so much better. The tuna fried rice will be a good way to use up leftover rice. Will try it
Love it! Appetiting! 🤤
Amazing! I liked all of them! Thank you!
Love the videos! What would be great would be the actual quantities used in the recipes. Most of us are pretty bad at cooking (presumably) and would appreciate as many details as possible. Thankkks!!!

With Japanese onigiri, the kind of rice matters a lot, you can't just use any type of rice, and you shouldn't season with sesame oil, that would be better for Korean gimbap. It's actually harder than it seems even if you have all the right ingredients. I still haven't perfected mine after almost 10 years.

A tuna burger may also have other alternatives, such as a schnitzel or a minced cutlet depending on what your country calls it. If you can add some additives to it, maybe potatoes or rice + some salad, it turns out to be a nice dinner dish. I could possibly eat "Heinz" beans with BBQ sauce with the minced tuna cutlet prepared in this way.
I'm always down for recipes that involve canned tuna. Definitely my go-to protein when I was in university, and I tried making so many things with it.
Tasty food easy to make, great video. What's not to enjoy. Thank You.
Nice recipes. Interesting narrative.

Delicious dishes creatd by a smart guy, costing less money but more healthy. Thanks.

Ok so I did the tuna patties and used a can of black eyed peas. It kind of has a falafel type taste to it, esp with the yogurt sauce it kind of surprised me lol
Just tried your fried rice recipe. I added peas in mine and didn’t have fish sauce, so I used ponzu. It was delicious! Thank you so much; I just moved out on my own and have a low budget so this recipe was perfect.

I really like the pasta dish. I do a very budget version with a kraft box pasa, good tuna and Italian salad dressing.
This fits perfectly with things I plan to make. Since I tried out one recipe a few days ago, I'm starting to get the appeal of cooking your own stuff. It's so much better than store stuff

I like tuna salad. Make a dressing with 2 tbsp sour cream / greek yogurt, 1 tbsp mayo, 1 tsp mustard, salt, pepper and lemon juice as acid. Make a double portion if needed. Mix with finely chopped raw onion (or raw pickled red onion, if you have the homemade kind in the fridge), a lot of finely chopped pointed cabbage , capers, frozen peas and 2 eggs boiled for 7 minutes and diced... and a can of drained tuna of course ;-) This is the base and can be eaten as it is, but... sometimes depending on the season I put in asparagus, broccoli root in fine strips or finely chopped leeks - all gently steamed - or thinly sliced raw apples. It all creates a green, crunchy element which is a good contrast to the creamy tuna. Perfect in a sandwich, either white bread or as an open sandwich on rye bread in my country. Or add chopped bellpeppers, corn, beans, diced tomatoes, sping onion - any solid vegetable that tastes good raw, in fact - and use it as a lunch salad with bread on the side. Ups. Tomatoes and beans are soft, but you get the picture ;-) Keeps for 4 days in the fridge. You don't think cat food at all - and if you don't have tuna, boiled chicken/leftover fried chicken from frost works just as well or even cold diced boiled potatoes but that is a completely different matter. Sorry. Ups. Forgot to say: - Love this video :-D
The spicy tuna fried rice as changed my life! forgot that my cooking can actually taste good :')
