Recipe: T.P.E (Tuna, Potato, Egg Salad)


Sundays are my cooking day.  I usually do my food shop then cook up my meals for the week.  Today I made my T.P.E (Tuna, Potato, Egg Salad).  This salad is a take on the salad I found at the deli counter at Real Food Daily in the Marina.  It was such an interesting trio and I love that it's packed with protein and blends three of my favorite salads.  These types of salads usually use mayo but since I despise mayo, this is topped off with my usual olive oil, sea salt and lemon pepper.  The egg yolk adds a little creaminess so it's not too dry.

T.P.E (Tuna, potato, egg salad)

Ingredients:
3 cans of canned albacore white tuna (in water or olive oil)
3 hard boiled eggs
Handful of small boiled potatoes
Grilled asparagus spears
diced green onions
diced red onions
lemon pepper
sea salt 
Olive oil

Toss tuna in a large bowl then egg and potatoes.  Drizzle olive oil, sea salt and lemon pepper.  Add the rest of the ingredients and mix together.  

Pack them up in individual containers and you're all set for lunch for the week.

Recipe: Strawberry, Apple Salad



This reminds me of the perfect summer salad recipe.  Light and refreshing!  Thanks to Nicole and Tracy for passing this along to share, who got the recipe from their friend Cristy.  The great thing about this one is that you can substitute it with any fruit or lettuce you like!
