101 Simple Meals: #25
I’ve decided to go through Summer Express: 101 Simple Meals Ready in 10 Minutes or Less and make as many of them as possible.
Here’s the first one I tried, #25.
Description: “Upscale tuna salad: good canned tuna (packed in olive oil), capers, dill or parsley, lemon juice but no mayo. Use to stuff a tomato or two.”
Notes: I may never make tuna salad any other way ever again. I didn’t find tuna in olive oil, only soybean oil; next time I’ll make more of an effort to find tuna in olive oil. Parsley was quite good, but I really wish I’d had dill instead. Stuffed tomatoes…? No thanks; I ate this on a bed of red leaf lettuce last night and again for lunch today on a baguette.
Rating: Excellent.

Working through that list is sure to get me over this cooking slump.

Man, amen to that.
I won’t even admit to half the junk we’ve been eating these days.

I’ve started cooking from the list too. This is going to be a great summer! One place to find tuna in olive oil is Trader Joe’s. They carry a lovely Italian brand, Tonna Genova—and for less than I’ve found it elsewhere.
