Hi Desert-Dan, I’ve been making “homemade Boursin”-- you could do that with the cream cheese to make an easy tasty sauce for pasta, maybe also for your Tuna Cakes 
See thread below from Caitlin, that’s just one reference to using Boursin for sauce (it’s also great in eggs), then link to “homemade boursin” recipe. I make mine with fewer herbs and goat cheese due to dietary sensitivity. I suspect you could use the spices you have/like.
Perhaps similar: I’ve been feeling anxiety about availability and price of food. I buy mostly protein and veg/fruit, prices keep going up, sometimes down but I notice up more, it’s stressful! Yesterday was elated to find 6 avocados at Costco for $5.99! A few months ago same avos were $13.99–I kept passing them by. Fall is avocado season; in addition the supply chain is suffering and we’ve been watching pricing shift for a long time now… wishing us all well, and I hope you’re also seeing good in-season produce pricing in the desert!
