TASTY TUESDAY!

I have been a cookin' chicky this last weekend! Below I've got some recipe reviews as well as some of my own concoctions.

First off; by request-is one that I had found in some magazine a while back-but of course ended up doing my own tweaks-Italian Tuna Casserole:

1 large can tuna

1 cup cooked pasta ( I used brown rice pasta)

1 med zucchini

2 carrots (or 1 if large)

1 large tomato
1/2 cup or so chopped mushrooms
8 kalamatta olives
1/2-3/4 cup pasta sauce of your choice
1/4 cup crumbled feta

Basically mix it all up in a casserole dish and bake for about 1/2 an hour at 180 C. Too easy! Next time I might add some sort bread or rice crumbs to the top so it has a crunchy topping.

Next I made these yummy and super easy crackers over the weekend:

I got this recipe from ELANA'S PANTRY super duper easy, and very tasty! I will leave mine in the oven a bit longer next time as they weren't quite as crispy as I would like for crackers-but darn good and quick!

Last was breakfast that I made Sunday which was inspired by a couple of KEK'S recipes; sort of a combo of the STRAWBERRY BLINTZ and the SOUFFLE OMELET














Here is what I did:
3 whites
1 yolk
1 heaping Tbs Vanilla whey protein powder
Mix in a bowl with wire whisk. Cook in a small pan until firm enough to flip...to the best of your ability..hehehe
Meanwhile-mix about a spoonful of Ricotta ( I used low fat), with jam ( I love St. Dalfours "no sugar added"). Place pancake on a plate, spoon ricotta mix onto it and fold pancake in half. I served, as you can see, with some sliced strawberries and a drizzle of real maple syrup. 
Next time, I would mix some yogurt in with the ricotta (as per Kek's directions) as it was a bit pasty; I'm thinking the yogurt might make it smoother...what do you think?

There you have it!
