Healthier Tuna (and nobody is the wiser...)
Over the years I have learned various ways to add more nutritional value to my families meals. One of the easiest and fastest is to "beef" up your tuna. Instead of draining the tuna before you make your tuna sandwiches or tuna melts, put the juices used for canning right in the bowl with the tuna. Add about a handful of quick cook oatmeal and stir. Let this sit for a few minutes (good time to get the other ingredients or set the table.) The oatmeal will soak up the liquid and you won't even notice it's there. It also makes the one can of tuna go a bit further. Be careful not to use too much oatmeal though. You may get accused of using (gasp!) whole wheat bread!
