Tuna is what’s for dinner these days at my house these days because it is inexpensive, easy to keep on the shelf, and healthy because it’s packed with protein and fish oil.
If you are turned off by the strong smell or flavor of tuna, I encourage you to give it another try with some of the recipes below. You will be impressed with how yummy it is incorporated into these dishes. Here are 5 healthy tuna meals with Weight Watchers Points.

When it comes to the Weight Watchers program, you can’t go wrong with tuna. You can’t beat a high-protein, filling food that is zero points. Be sure you purchase the kind packed in water, not oil.
If you can’t handle the taste or smell of tuna, many recipes can be made using canned chicken.
