If you buy a lot of cans of tuna and don't want to repeat at every meal, here are three tips to help you make the most of it.
It often happens that we go to the supermarket and buy a lot of cans of tuna, either because they're on sale or because they usually come in a pack of three. It also often happens that we end up using tuna in the same dishes. We lose originality in the kitchen and end up getting bored with ourselves, a serious sin.

The second tip is the typical tuna omelet. Yes, because an omelet doesn't have to be just potatoes. Write down the ingredients for this dish: four eggs, one can of tuna in oil, a quarter of an onion, also finely chopped, one green pepper, diced into small pieces, olive oil for cooking (no need to waste the good oil), salt, and pepper.
And the third and final tip, which will make the little ones fall in love with it, is tuna croquettes. Croquettes are also an excellent excuse for children who reject tuna to start developing a taste for it. Ingredients for this dish: two cans of tuna in oil, two medium potatoes, cooked and mashed, one egg, a quarter cup of breadcrumbs, a quarter cup of fresh parsley, chopped, oil for frying (no need to waste the good oil either), salt, and pepper.
