Tuna and corn mix Calories

Chopped red onion, cucumber, parsley, celery and a squeeze of lemon all work well in tuna and corn mix. For a creamy version, stir in yogurt or mayonnaise just before serving so the mixture does not become watery.

Tuna and corn mix is a simple kind of tuna salad, but it usually centers on tuna and sweetcorn rather than a fixed set of vegetables or dressing. Additions such as onion, greens or mayonnaise vary by recipe.

Tuna and corn mix works well in a sandwich, baked potato, wrap or leafy salad. Serve it with soup for a fuller meal, or spoon it onto crackers as a quick snack.

Tuna and corn mix keeps for 3–4 days in a covered container in the refrigerator if it was chilled promptly. Discard it if it sat at room temperature for more than two hours, and keep mayonnaise-based versions cold.

You can freeze tuna and corn mix, but it may turn watery and soft when thawed. Mayonnaise can separate, too. For better texture, freeze the drained tuna and corn separately and combine them after thawing.

Tuna and corn mix usually turns watery when the canned tuna or corn has not been drained well. Drain both ingredients thoroughly before mixing, and add dressing only when you are ready to serve.

Yes, you can eat tuna and corn mix without cooking if the tuna and corn are from unopened, properly stored cans. Drain them and mix in a clean bowl; do not eat from a can that is bulging, leaking or badly damaged.
