Tunafish with Wasabi Mayo Sandwich |
I find it very satisfying to try new combinations of flavors and also be able to clean out leftovers from my refrigerator. We often think of leftovers as "has beens" and "less than perfect" seconds. I have found that by using the leftovers in a different way they become fresh and fun and worthy of keeping and using. I tried out a new combo this past weekend for a tasty lunch.
We had some wasabi dip leftover and I thought it might make a flavorful mayo for a tunafish sandwich for a Saturday lunch for the family.
How I did it:
1 6 oz can tuna
2 Tbls Wasabi Mayo
2 stalks finely chopped celery
2 tsp capers
I mixed all of the ingredients together and then divided it into 4 servings. I toasted 2 slices of bread (90 cal/slice) per person, added a slice of tomato and the serving of tunafish salad to make the sandwich.
It was delicious! The Wasabi Mayo added a little "umph" to an otherwise typically mild dish. I calculated the calories for the sandwich to be 291. To make it a meal I added an orange (87/cal) cut in quarters. Total calorie count for the meal was 378. A definite repeat.
