Kristina’s Home Canned Tuna

If you end up with more fresh fish than you can handle, try out this home canning method to preserve the meat to enjoy later.

You can use meat from any part of the tuna for canning, including all the oddly shaped bits & pieces trimmed from the lion, head, or carcass. Or, try with other species you have in abundance, like swordfish or salmon!

Mediterranean Tuna Salad

Use your favorite olive oil-packed canned tuna to prep this recipe - or take it up a notch by canning your own! This tuna salad works well on its own as a side, mixed into a larger green salad, or as the filling to an epic tuna melt or quesadilla.
