Do you have any recipes that use canned tuna, but you can't taste the tuna?

I have several cans of tuna, but my husband doesn't like it. Is there anything I can hide it in? Thanks~Do you have any recipes that use canned tuna, but you can't taste the tuna?
COWBOY SPAGHETTI





1 pound spaghetti


1 can of Tuna


Salt


1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan


3 slices smoky bacon, chopped


1 pound ground sirloin


1 medium onion, chopped


3 to 4 cloves garlic, chopped


Ground black pepper


2 teaspoons hot sauce, eyeball it


1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, eyeball it


1/2 cup beer


1 (14-ounce) can, chopped or crushed fire roasted tomatoes


1 (8-ounces) can, tomato sauce


8 ounces sharp Cheddar


4 scallions, chopped





Heat a pot of water to a boil. Add spaghetti and salt the water. Cook to al dente or with a bite to it.


Heat a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil and bacon. Brown and crisp bacon, 5 minutes, remove with a slotted spoon. Drain off a little excess fat if necessary. Leave just enough to coat the bottom of the skillet. Add beef and crumble it as it browns, 3 to 4 minutes. Add onions, garlic and stir into meat. Season the meat with salt and pepper, hot sauce and Worcestershire. Add 1/2 cup beer and deglaze the pan. Cook 5 to 6 minutes more then stir in tomatoes and tomato sauce.





Add hot spaghetti to meat and sauce and combine. Adjust seasonings and serve up pasta in shallow bowls. Grate some cheese over the pasta and sprinkle with scallions. Garnish with crisp bacon





Open Tuna and serve to cat :)Do you have any recipes that use canned tuna, but you can't taste the tuna?
Tuna can be masked easily in any recipe


drain your tuna WELL (in a colander - strainer) at least 1/2 hour


then rinse with cold water (if packed in oil - rinse longer)


drain well again


This removes alot of the fishy taste and the preservatives
You can barley tell the difference in chicken from canned tuna. You can use it in recipes like macaroni salad, it goes really well and I think it tastes exactly like chicken in it, if not detectible at all. Heres a recipe, but not the same one I use (I can't find mine at the moment) -





Ingredients:


1 Regular size box elbow macaroni


3 Grated carrots


1 (12 oz) pkg. Shredded Mild Cheddar Cheese (not finely shredded)


1 Small Jar Sweet Pickles (small bite-sized pieces)


6 Hard Boiled Eggs


1 (10 oz) can Cooked Chicken Breast chunks


3/4 jar Miracle Whip


1 tablespoon Mustard


3 tablespoons Celery Seed





Directions:





1. Cook macaroni according to package directions. Rinse in cold water and be sure macaroni is completely cooled. (not warm)





2. Combine Miracle Whip, mustard, %26amp; celery seeds and adjust to your liking if necessary.





3. In a very large bowl mix macaroni, pickles, carrots, eggs and cheese.





4. Add Miracle Whip mixture. Stir until well combined.





5. Add Chicken and stir just enough to distribute the chicken throughout the rest of ingredients. (If you don't put the chicken in last it will fall apart and be stringy).





6. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.

The miricle whip can be subsituted for mayonaisee, and the chicken would obviously be the tuna. Good luck, hope this helps!
There are all sorts of things you can try. You can make a salad and top it with tuna, or make a tuna salad using mayo, dijion mustade, various herbs, etc. I used to work at a grocery store and we made a bunch of different tuna salads, most of which you couldn't taste the tuna in. Try making a lemon cranberry tuna salad. If you go to www.wholefoodsmarket.com and look up the recipies there you should be able to find some good ones.
TUNA AND CHEESE STUFFED MANICOTTI





8 manicotti shells


1/2 c. chopped onion


3 sm. carrots, sliced


1/2 c. chopped celery


1 beaten egg


1 (9 oz.) c. tuna, drained %26amp; flaked


1/4 c. cream style cottage cheese


1/2 tsp. salt


1/4 tsp. lemon pepper seasoning





SAUCE:





1 3/4 c. milk


2 tbsp. all-purpose flour


1/2 c. shredded process Swiss cheese (2 oz.)


1/2 c. pitted ripe olives, sliced


Parsley sprigs (optional)





Cook pasta according to package directions; drain well. Meanwhile, in saucepan cook carrots, onion and celery in small amount of boiling water 8 minutes or until tender. Drain well.


To half the vegetables add the egg, tuna, cottage cheese, salt and lemon pepper seasoning. Spoon about 1/3 cup filling into each manicotti shell. Place in a 12 x 7 1/2 x 2 inch baking dish.





For Sauce: In saucepan blend milk into flour. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Stir in Swiss cheese until melted. Add remaining cooked vegetables and the olives. Pour sauce over pasta shells. Cover with foil. Bake in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes or until heated through. Garnish with parsley, if desired. Serves 4.
Tuna/macaroni and cheese casserole could work.





For a quick one, use a prepared package of macaroni and cheese as directed on the package. Add two heaping tablespoons of mayonaise, the can of tuna, four slices of american cheese, 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of paprika, and a dash of pepper. You may need to add more milk to keep it from being to dry.





Put it in a casserole dish and bake for 1/2 hour 375 or until brown. Or for a creamier consistency and less cook time, just put it under the broiler and brown the top.





If your husband likes vegetables, you can add green or black olives, sauteed celery or red bell peppers, mushrooms, or a combination for more hiding the tuna and variety.
I suggest tuna cakes (like crab cakes). Make them really spicy and you won't be able to taste the tuna.





Or, try these ...
