    Try this spread on multigrain buns wrapped in tinfoil and warmed in the oven. Mmmmmm and the cheese melts. It's heaven, a comfort food that's guilt free! - 4/10/09

    This recipe I got when I was a teen from another weight lose group. I have redone it with the lite Italian instead of the regular italian dressing. Besides I can't have mayo so most of the recipes that have that in are out for me!

    Not sure what you did not like the recipe. Did you drain the tuna!

    I love tuna and am always looking for recipes. The sodium on this is too high for me so I cut back on the pickles. Worked great! - 6/19/09

    This is fantastic! Almost a 5! I cut the recipe in half and still had 12 (1/4 cup) servings at 50 calories each. I was concerned at first, cuz I wasn't sure if I was suppose to drain the tuna ... but the dressing held it together well. Might add celery next time for even more crunchiness. - 4/22/09
