Walking through Target's grocery department the other day I spotted something new that looked like it would be perfect for the low carber that is in a hurry. Pre-made Tuna Salad made by StarKist Tuna. Now I know what your thinking, why would I use tuna salad made by machines in a factory when its such an easy thing to make on my own. Plus its packaged, how good can it be after its been sitting on a shelf all day in some plastic wrapper. Well, although that is a valid point, you may find yourself at some point in a hurry to run out the door and wanting something more that just the usual low carb energy bar. Something that feels more substantial. That's what this was for me.
I opened up the package and spread the tuna salad out on a low carb tortilla. I added a slice of Swiss cheese to it and threw it in the microwave for 30 seconds to heat it up and create melty treasure of a tuna melt. I took a bite of my express meal to discover that it wasn't bad at all. It certainly lacked the taste that the homemade stuff has, and had a certain slimy consistence to it that some may not be crazy about, but I didn't mind it at all. It was very easy and would be a great thing to keep around for those meal emergencies or in your desk as a snack. I would say there is a good chance I'll be having it again.
