Easy as 1,2,3 Tuna Macaroni Salad

Salads anyone? I'm craving to eat salad so here's another yummy food that I concocted earlier.



Tuna-Macaroni Salad

What you will need:
  • Pasta, any kind ( I choose Garden Rotini, pastas made with tomato and spinach)
  • Lettuce
  • Tuna Flakes (you can also use corned tuna in can)
    *You can also substitute tuna flakes with steamed chicken breast
  • Some mayonnaise
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • White onion  (optional)
Procedure:
  • Cook pasta according to package instruction.
  • While cooking drain the tuna flakes to discard excess oil/water then mix with the mayonnaise
  • Add in a pinch of salt and pepper to taste to the mixture. You can also add now the onions if you want
  • Wash the lettuce and prepare it in a plate, add some pasta and the dressing on top. 
YUM!!!!  :)

Marinated Chicken in Garlic,Cumin and Calamansi Pockets ♥

I am so determined  to once again lose weight, so I jog, I do Zumba Exhilarate, Hip Hop Abs and Combat Workout... hahahaha do I sound like an exercise addict? Anyways exercise will not gonna work if you won't include proper meal planning. Now I have the exhilarate pack that includes recipes of the food that you'll need to eat for 10 days. However, some of the ingredients are not available here or so expensive. So, here's what I did. I either experiment or reinvent the recipes based on the exhilarate meal plan :)

Here's one sample of my reinvented recipe :D

Marinated Chicken in Cumin and Calamansi Pockets




What you need for the recipe:

For the Marinated Chicken
Marinade:
10 calamansi (juiced and seeded, can use 2 lemon instead of calamansi)
1 tbsp of cumin powder
pinch of salt
1 cloves of garlic (chopped)
4 cuts of chicken breast skin and bone removed

Procedure:
  • Mix everything together and marinade for about 3 hours. 
  • Preheat non stick skillet on the stove top. Fry the chickens, turning occasionally to avoid burnt meat.
  • Set aside the cooked chicken meat for later use.
Here's the cooked marinated chicken in garlic, cumin and calamansi

For the pita pockets, you can either buy at the nearest grocery store or make your own "no yeast" pita/tortilla. Click here

Now here's what you got to do with those meat and pita breads.

You will need:
1 ripe avocado, sliced
1 ripe mango, sliced
3 tomatoes, seeded and cut into small cubes
1 big white onion, cut into small cubes
3 green chillis, sliced thinly
4 marinated chicken,sliced (you can also use beef and pork if you want)
some mayonnaise and hot sauce (optional)


Procedure:

Cut the pita into halves, open the pockets and put everything inside according to how much of each ingredients you like. Put some mayonnaise and hot sauce for additional taste. Though I prefer mine without the mayonnaise. A little hot sauce will do though. :)

And here's my lunchie ...
