Oh, canned tuna, what should I do with you?

Well fellas, I was reorganizing my pantry and realized I have not one, two or three- but five cans of albacore tuna.
I love tuna, and I'm pretty sure out of the can I've exclusively made tuna salad using relish, mayo, diced celery and an assortment of nuts (almonds, sunflower seeds, etc) to fill it out.
However, it depresses me to think of doing that for the rest of my life. So with 5 cans staring at me, I feel like trying new things.
What are some of yalls favorite ways of using canned tuna? I'm trying to keep it pretty lean and healthy, but I'd love any inspiration I can get.
TIA

I'm getting sick just thinking about canned tuna.

Hard boiled eggs, mayo, relish, little mustard, salt and pepper, finely diced celery and onion on fresh white Bunny Bread with lettuce and tomato.
Sweet ice tea to go with it.

Bro, French or Italian canned tuna is a delicacy.
The Niciose salad at Tartine in uptown NOLA is 100% fantastic.

You still got the receipt? Take it back.

Quesadilla, throw it on a Caesar salad, or plain ol' crackers and chesse are my usual go-to's for canned fish. Not a big fan of tuna, but I eat the crap out of canned salmon.

I used to love canned tuna, cream of mushroom soup, and shell noodles. Lots of black pepper. Petite green peas on the side.

Well please let me add to the anti-canned crowd that I spend a good bit of time in the gym, which is why I have so much of it.
I, like everyone else, prefer a nice fish fillet or steak, but I don't turn my nose up to canned tuna. Serves a nice protein-packed purpose.
Loving some of yalls suggestions btw

I was just messing with you. My dad loves some canned tuna, but I can't get passed the smell.

Yeah, I'm not the type that'll eat it straight out of the can like some people.
That's pretty much why it exists- being made into some form of tuna salad or another.
I've been on a seafood and legume binge recently since I amped up working out. Bout to broil a couple mahi mahi fillets and have it with black beans and rice.

Picked up a quick snack idea from some Mexican workers. They'd get a can of tuna, some mayo, and a can of mixed vegetables. Mix up the tuna, mayo and veggies, server on Saltine crackers.
Good stuff.

"Tuna fish salad" as the Catholics call it, is the only thing I've ever made with canned tuna, though I've fed some cats with it, also.
You could make tuna cakes like crab cakes.

One of my buddies used to make a dish that was pretty simple (and easy to remember because it rhymes, yeah I know lame)
Mac and Cheese + tuna and peas
Actually not too bad...add some black pepper after
