This recipe is from AllRecipes, an occasional source of random healthy-eating fodder. It was pretty good; I wasn’t expecting much from the recipe because of how basic it was, but to my surprise it was tasty and healthy.
Ingredients
3 (5 ounce) cans solid white tuna packed in water, drained
½ (10 ounce) can sweet corn, drained
½ onion, finely chopped
1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped
2 tablespoons salsa
1 lime, juiced
hot sauce to taste
salt and pepper to taste
sour cream, for topping
shredded cheese of choice
8 tostada shells or 4 tostada bowls
optional: garnish with avocado slices
Directions
Flake tuna into a bowl. Stir in corn, onion, cilantro, salsa, and lime juice. Season with a few dashes of hot sauce, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine, then spoon onto tostada shells. Top each tostada with a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkling of shredded cheese, and a bit more hot sauce.
Serve cold as shown or pop under the broiler to melt/brown cheese.

I’ve done something similar with chicken. Easy and good.
And, if instead of using the tostada you put the ingredients on a pizza crust this might be something you’d be served in any number of Northern European “pizzerias.”
I will eat tuna tostadas, no problem.
