HERE'S WHAT TO PICK UP:face="Arial" size="2" color="#000000"> Tuna is healthy, cheap and quick to prepare. Just mix together some canned tuna (white albacore is worth the extra cost!), chopped celery, light or fat-free mayo, and seasonings of your choice (I like garlic salt, onion powder, and Mrs. Dash. Sometimes, I add some italian seasoning). Spray some whole wheat english muffins with cooking spray; broil until lightly browned. Add tuna mixture, a slice of tomato and some low fat cheese and broil until tuna is heated through and cheese is melted. A prepackaged salad with light or fat- free dressing and baked potato chips to make a great, quick meal!
