Tuna melt cups



Recommended Posts

Since I haven't eaten bread since I was banded in 2008 I have had a major craving for a tuna melt. I came up with this 3 days and I have eaten 4 for lunch and dinner every day since then lol.

Tuna melt cups

Mini phyllo tart shells (Athena's)

Tuna

Light mayo

American cheese

Just make tuna salad fill cups and put 1/4 slice of American cheese on top and broil.. So yummy and satisfies my tuna melt craving. The shells are 25 calories each so total of 100 calories for shells but well worth it!

This does sound very good, may have to stop at the store on the way home for some shells! Thanks!

Love it! I never thought about using phyllo for bread but I'll bet this is wonderful with the crispy texture. Will try; thanks.

sounds delicious where do you find the shells in the grocery store? Frozen or refrigerated?

I found them in freezer section of my grocery store next to pie shells. I do use wanton wrappers to make mini pizza (spray with cooking spray, put on tastefully simple garlic bread seasoning, a piece of pepperoni and some mozz or parm and bake .. Totally satisfies my pizza craving.. I can hardly wait to have my mini tuna melts tomorrow lol

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
