the one meat recipe i will actually eat

as you know, i am a vegetarian.  i was never a big meat eater to begin with and i definitely didnt eat seafood.  i found this recipe though as i was looking for something easy and quick that richard could take for lunch.  turns out, i like this a lot and found myself snacking on it too :)


ingredients are...



  • 1 loaf french bread
  • 1 small sweet onion, peeled and diced
  • 1 (12 ounce) can tuna, drained
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup mayonnaise (which of course i made from my own recipe)


  1. preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. in a mixing bowl, combine sweet onion, drained tuna, mozzarella, and mayonnaise. mix well.
  3. spread tuna mixture on slices of french bread.
  4. bake in the oven for 10 minutes.




super simple and quite delicious.

homemade mayo!!

i dont eat it very often so there is really no point in buying it.  but, while bobby was here for the 4th of july i was cooking like a mad woman and realized that i needed some for the coleslaw i was making.  i didnt want to go to the store and richard and bobby had downed an entire bottle of jager in 30 minutes so they werent going either....
hummm... what is a girl to do???
make her own, of course!!! :)


this recipe is so so so simple!!
ingredients:
1 egg
1 tablespoon mustard
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white vinegar
2 teaspoon powdered sugar
1 1/4  cup canola oil


mix everything except oil together in a blender.  NOTE:  ALL INGREDIENTS NEED TO BE ROOM TEMP!  slowly add oil while continuously blending.  i actually doubled everything because i was making avocado ranch mayo.  (hence the empty avocado and ranch packaging)  for that i used 1/2 cup mayo, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1 avocado and 1 packet of hidden valley ranch dry mix.  mash up the avocado and mix everything else in with it.  it is really really good  :)
