Tuna Melt


This is what Brother and I had for lunch today, and I have to say it was an awesome rainy gloomy day lunch! Of course I found this on Pinterest! :-)

It is super easy to make, here is what you will need;

1 can tuna(in water), drained
1/4 cup shredded carrots
1/4 cup diced celery
1/4 cup minced red onion
1 tsp mayo
1 tsp red wine vinegar
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 slices cheese(I used Colby Jack)
2 slices Whole Wheat Bread
2 slices tomato
Oil Spray

Directions:

Combine tuna, celery, carrots, onion, mayonnaise, vinegar, salt and pepper.

Heat a large skillet over low heat. Spray skillet with oil, and place two slices of bread in the pan.
Top bread with cheese, then tuna salad and tomato. Cook on low heat until cheese melts and bread gets toasty.



Yum, Yum, Yum  will definitely be making this again!

* I got the original recipe for this from SkinnyTaste.com

Crabby Patties


I love Salmon patties! My mom use to make them when I was a kid so I knew I wanted to make them for the kids. But how to get Sissy to eat them with the word salmon in it? Well...Big Daddy lets her watch Sponge Bob sometimes so these aren't salmon patties, at our house they are Crabby Patties! :-)

Here is what you will need:


1 can salmon
1 egg
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 tsp lemon juice

In a bowl, mix together salmon, egg, bread crumbs, and lemon juice. (I pick ALL the bones out that I can)


Heat a small amount of oil in a skillet.  Form your patties and place in oil. Cook patties for 5 minutes, turning once until golden brown.




This particular night we had raw carrots and Broccoli Cheese rice.

Sissy wanted to make the rice.

I orginally got this recipe from Laura at Heavenly Homemakers  I love her website. Everyone go check it out she has some great recipes! Everything we have tryed we all liked.  :-)
