Tuna Burger

by Leave a Comment

Tasty Tuna Burgers! I came up with this meal because I wanted to incorporate more fish into my diet and some more protein.  This recipe is a great way to do both.  Also I am gluten and dairy free and that totally follows along with that as well. Sometimes I am hesitant to eat canned fish but I got this recipe idea in my head and I went ahead and tested it out anyway.  I was really surprised! It tasted really fresh and not fishy at all.  I wouldn’t recommend this meal as leftovers however.  Something about reheating it changes the taste.  I am such a huge fan of fresh food.

Green Vegetable Grilled Cheese - The Study of Yum

Grilled cheese sandwiches are so yummy! What’s better than warm toasty buttery bread with gooey melty cheese? These tasty sandwiches don’t really have the best reputation when it comes to healthy food. This recipe was my attempt to change that! Without changing that delicious taste of course. I packed this grilled cheese with some of the yummiest green things I could think of! My favorite part is the avocados. The way they soften and sort of melt as you cook the sandwich is just amazing. It’s so creamy and good! About 3 years ago I hadn’t really given avocados a good try. You know how you try some kind of food as a kid and you don’t like it and years go by and then you’re an adult and you still think you don’t like that particular food? Well, that’s what happened here. I was going through life thinking I didn’t like avocados when really I hadn’t ever given them a fair chance. Thanks to my husband for reintroducing them to me! My life is so much better with avocados in it. I hope everyone’s lives are better with this Green Vegetable Grilled Cheese!

Mashed Avocado and Bacon Burger

Sometimes I just crave a good hamburger and nothing else will do. I LOVE this burger. I got the inspiration from my aunt Becky. She made these delicious burgers for everyone on Memorial Day and she told me there were bits of bacon crumbled up in the meat. I just about died when I heard that. She also put slices of avocado on top, but I prefer mashed avocado. So here is my take on this delicious burger.

Lentil Black Bean Tacos

Lentil Black Bean Tacos

Tacos are awesome! I made these lovely guys on Cinco de Mayo. Just getting around to posting them. The cool thing about these is they are vegan. If you haven’t tried vegan food I dare you to make these tacos. I dare you! ;P These tacos are so good! Max and I are seriously obsessed with them. And keep in mind Max is a meat lover. Not only are the lentils and beans pretty flavorful but the guacamole and pico really just send it over the top. I never tried guacamole until Max made me try his recipe a little after we got married. I’m totally hooked! Now for the pico de gallo. I make it a little different than most. I’m really not a fan of raw onion so I just substitute it with some finely minced garlic. I love garlic so I think this is some of the best pico in the world. Enjoy!…
