Tuna Fish and Cottage Cheese  
 03/12/2007  
Replacing the mayonnaise in a tuna fish salad with cottage cheese may
initially sound revolting and cause for retreat. However, after the
gasps and sighs have subsided the actual matter of this is that the
cottage cheese is merely acting as something to make the tuna fish
wet. Have you tried eating a can of tuna with nothing mixed in?
Halfway through you were probably on the search for the nearest jug of
water or anything to help it along.

Below are some stats and statistics found regarding mayonnaise and
cottage cheese. We prefer to encourage you to eat natural foods rather
than their fat-free versions due to the often unbalanced and
unpronounceable ingredients they employ.

Additionally, adding mustard, garlic powder, and other low salt style
seasonings will only enhance this tuna salad. Add in vegetables such
as onion, celery, or whatever your favorite is and enjoy it.

So, this is an easy recipe. Mix it up and experiment as you see fit.
Low cost and low calorie.
