Easy Tuna Sandwich





This is one of the easiest and tasty recipe that I make every once in a while. I recalled, when I was still in Grade School, we actually had a subject where we make a budget for a recipe and cook. Our teacher will provide us some recipes to cook and this was one of it. And since it has been more than 15 years, I have to make my own measurements for this recipe.

I can't forget this recipe because when I tried it at first, I really disliked it because of the onions. I don't really like onions before. However as I grew up, I got used to the taste of onions. So, if you ever make this recipe, just make sure that the onions are really chopped finely into small bits, some kids might dislike it if they see big sized onions in their food. 


Here's the recipe for the tuna sandwich:

INGREDIENTS: 
2 cans      Tuna Flakes in Oil
160 ml     Mayonnaise
3 tbsp      White Onions; chopped
                Salt & Pepper to taste

Sliced Bread/ Bread Bun

PROCEDURE:
Drain the tuna flakes. Then using a fork, make sure to break down big tuna flakes to small pieces. Add the mayonnaise and mix. Add the chopped onions and mix. Add salt and pepper to taste. 
Then once you completed the mixture, spread it on the bread. 



For healthier recipe:

You can use Low Sodium Tuna Flakes in Oil and Low Fat Mayonnaise
You can also add a little of chopped cucumber however, please note that adding cucumber will make the spread mixture runny. Just be careful about this part. ^^
You can also add lettuce in your sandwich. 




I hope you like this recipe. Enjoy! ^^

Stranger in My Own Land

I have always been dreaming about traveling and visiting other countries. And I have always wanted to learn about other people's culture and language. But the problem is that I have yet to fulfill my dream. I think that one of the setback is that I'm actually one of those people who find pleasure in lying at home and being comfortable staying at my comfort zone. And so, when a friend would ask me out for a date, we would somehow end up getting in a restaurant to eat and talk. But before getting to a conclusion where to eat, it would usually take us a long to discuss and decide since I am actually not very knowledgeable about good places to eat here in our town. 

Now, I realize that I don't want to be like that anymore. I am already 26 and soon to be 27 years old and I have only known a few of too many places in my hometown which is Iligan City. I want to be able to bring and introduce my family and friends to a place that I have visited and where the food is good. I wanted to explore and try food that is also new to my palate. 

I realized that I have to stop making excuses and start living my dream. Because if you ask me about tourist spots in our place, I could give you a few in mind. However, if the question would be like... "Is it a good place? How is the place?", I would probably be mute or would say awkwardly "Eeer...I've not been to that place, sorry." And I would probably lose my face. 


And so, I have decided to get to know our town first. This would also be a good way to start my dream. Aside from a reason to de-stress, have fun and learn, I have to know where I come from so that I can also help others learn more about me. 

Here's to getting to know my place better!
