I know that they don't have the diet/recipe, etc. forum up yet (I can't wait until they do!), but I wanted to post a really great Tuna Fish Sandwich recipe that I made today (it's a little different from your "traditional" tuna sandwich).
The recipe was for 4 servings, but I scaled it down so I could make it for one. I think the calories are around 270. It was really good!
2 slices light whole wheat bread
1 small can (the individual ones, 3 oz.) of tuna (water packed, not oil)
Chopped onions (about 1 or 2 tablespoons, more or less, to your taste)
1 small box raisins (the little snack size)
1/8 to 1/4 of an apple, chopped
1 tablespoon of canned, unsweetened crushed pineapple
1 tablespoon fat free mayo
Mix all and spread on the bread to make a sandwich! Enjoy!
Note: I also added (because I like spicy), some chopped jalapenos. I also added a teaspoon of yellow prepared mustard to the tuna, plus a little on each slice of bread. I also added cayenne pepper and some black pepper. The recipe says you can also omit the bread and serve the tuna salad on a bed of lettuce (of course it would be less calories because the bread I use is 80 calories for two slices).
Hope you enjoy! I've been trying out different recipes that are either clean, or very low fat/healthy and this was one I really liked. I'm trying to build up a recipe collection of clean/lowfat/healthy recipes so I can start eating better.
