TuNofish Salad Sandwich Recipe

I am a sandwich person at heart… I love sandwiches for lunch or even dinner. Heck, I love sandwiches for breakfast and snacks as well. I bought these nice whole wheat hoagie rolls this last week and I have just been making sandwiches away…
One of my favorite ones is TuNofish Salad – pay attention to the spelling, because it’s made with Tuno, the soy protein flavored with seaweed to taste like regular tuna. It’s light and makes a great lunch. My friend Jesiel would say it makes a great breakfast… because she only has tuna sandwiches as breakfast, ever since she was a little kid.
TuNofish Salad Sandwich
1/3 cup Tuno soy protein, defrosted and squeezed as dry as possible
3 tbs egg-free mayonnaise, such as Vegenaise
1 tbs finely chopped onion
juice of 1/2 lemon or lime
Garlic salt and pepper to taste
Choice of bread – I used a whole wheat hoagie roll
Lettuce – romaine or arugula works great
3 tomato slices
Extra mayo to spread
Mix together in a bowl the Tuno, mayo, onion, lemon juice, garlic salt and pepper.
1. Toast bread to your liking.
2. Spread mayo on both sides.
3. Place TuNo salad on bottom bread. Top with lettuce and tomatoes. Sprinkle some salt and pepper on top of tomatoes.
Enjoy with your favorite kind of natural potato chips or plantain chips.
Just to give you an idea that if you enjoy tunafish sandwiches and you decide to go veggie, you will not have to give the experience or the flavor. Believe me, these taste just as good as the real thing used to taste to me.

The Tasty And Popular Food - Sandwich

The sandwich first came to America in 1840 by way of Elizabeth Leslie's book, Directions for Cookery. It included a recipe for a ham sandwich, and the tasty meal remains one of the most popular sandwiches in America today. The original recipe called for cold boiled ham to be placed between two thinly sliced pieces of buttered bread with an optional thin layer of mustard. A variety of ham choices can be found in the market, including honey ham, smoked ham, baked ham or the traditional boiled ham. White bread has given way in recent years to healthier choices such as wheat, oatmeal or whole-grain. Other ingredients like lettuce,tomatoes and pickles are commonly found on ham sandwiches.

As with the ham sandwich, any variety of breads can be used with a BLT, although white is still a popular choice. Some people toast the bread while others use it straight from the loaf. Since bacon is salty and the sandwich in whole carries a lot of calories, health-conscious individuals have made some modifications to the original recipe. Substituting turkey bacon, low-fat or fat-free mayonnaise, and wheat or whole grain bread can make a difference in the fat and sodium counts, although admittedly the changes cannot produce the same, full-bodied flavor as the original BLT. Use things other than bread as your end caps. For instance, core an apple, slice it hamburger style, and then put peanut butter in between two slices. Walla! You have a peanut butter sandwich. You can also use crackers, large cookies, pancakes or waffles. For fillings, you can put breakfast foods like eggs, ham, grated carrots, or you can go dessert style and put in chocolate, peanut butter, honey, agave, fruit like applies, bananas, or strawberries. The possibilities are endless!

All this takes is spreading a little butter or oil on each outer side of the sandwich, putting it in the press, and walla! You have a delicious toasted sandwich that adds a lot of fun and excitement to a meal that would have normally just been okay. Perhaps peanut butter and jelly sandwiches rate among the nation's favorites because of their delicious nutty-and-sweet taste or maybe it is due to the fact that they are an easy, inexpensive way to get children to eat meals. When sending sandwiches in a lunchbox, place peanut butter on both sides of the bread to avoid the soggy mess that jelly on bread can create by lunchtime. Other variations call for such additions as honey, marshmallow fluff, raising, chocolate or chocolate syrup, or even potato chips. However, after a long day at the office, the idea of going home and putting an evening meal together is simply too tiring to think about.
