Calvin and Hobbes and I go wayyyyyy back. I even have a tattoo of them. They are the bread and butter of my childhood. Thanks for the recipe and for making me smile! :]

Good. Did I read that you are using water pack tuna? I can't get beyond the "cat food" smell....all the more reason I LOVE my ring thingy as it lets me really press out the oil and then can run a bit of fresh water into can and press it dry. Surely there's another use for such a cool tool!

I'm not a big tuna fan, but think I'll try this with chicken.
I love Calvin and Hobbes; that was my dad's favorite cartoon. Brought back a lot of good memories.
I'll be putting the recipe in my Tasty Kitchen recipe box :)

Is it okay that I'm 26 (nearly 27) and I want a Hobbes? And a tuna sammich to share with him? Precious.

I thought I had all the kitchen gadget in the world! But not that thingy you mentioned. :) Found it on Amazon and put the link to share with our friends! Thanks again!! And so glad you like the soup recipe!

Kay, if you cannot find the thingy I'll be happy to send you one...I think you have my email, just let me know! I owe you a good favor, anyway. The friend who first told me of your blog gave me the book from which you've often quoted. The Spicy Tomato Soup is a household favorite and I thank you each time I make it.

Toby, after testing a few recipes with canned tuna, I am def going to try with oil already in it! I can probably get away with half of the mayo. :)

being the youngest boy in the family - I can relate.. (I got my way with mom every time :))

To be honest, I rarely press and squitch out the tuna - I tend to buy chunk white or albacore in oil and use most of the oil in the can. I find the tuna is more flavorful and much less watery. And since there's usually oil (or mayo) in the mix, I'm not adding in that much in addition.

I love it, so cute! This looks delicious

I love the Hobbes - that is so cool! My brothers love the Calvin and Hobbes comics and read them at every opportunity. Thank you for the tip on draining tuna - I will keep that in mind next time i am at the store!

Oh This tuna salad sandwich looks perfect !!

Draining tuna juice is not my favorite thing to do, I will look for that ring thingy! Thanks for the tip! :)

Kay, the grocery store has a two piece, turquoise, concentric ring thingy that is PERFECT for draining and pressing tuna dry right in the can. The outer ring comes off to make it fit perfectly into the tuna can. I've become so attached that I bought a back up, just in case... A tool we definitely can use!
