My Mom's Tuna Salad My Mom's Tuna Salad
I have always loved Tuna fish but not that slight fishy after taste. One day my mom made tuna sandwiches and this time, there really was no after taste and there was a crisp refreshing taste to it. My mom told me she added apple and I thought she was messing with me but the next time she made tuna I was helping her make it and sure enough out came an apple. From then on that is the only way I make it. I have gotten many a friends, and coworkers ask me to make it for them. The parents of my daughters friends and our neighbor's say that when they make tuna the only way their kids will eat tuna now is if they put apple in it. LOL! cswindoll -

Green Mango Som Tum Style Salad Green Mango Som Tum Style Salad
I unexpectedly found a green mango, so I bought it on impulse! It was riper than I thought it would be, so I combined it with whatever vegetables I had in my refrigerator. As a typical salad, this mango was too ripe, but the fruity and sweet taste was delicious. The dried shrimp and pine nuts added a nice touch, too.To complement the mango texture, I peeled the cucumber. The colors were softened and looked nice. The all-purpose fish sauce can be used as a salad dressing or for other dishes. I recommend making a liberal amount. Recipe by Heartful Kitchen Rei cookpad.japan -
Sunny Tomato Somen Noodle Soup Sunny Tomato Somen Noodle Soup
I got bored of mentsuyu and came up with this as a way to get myself to eat more vegetables.Since the broth is concentrated, just add 1 or 2 ice cubes rather than chilling it.The combination of tomato mentsuyu with noodles may not be for everyone.You can substitute lime, grapefruit juice, or apple vinegar for the lemon juice. Or even with balsamic vinegar. Recipe by food town cookpad.japan
