Mock Tuna Salad

http://www.ivu.org/recipes/snacks/dolphin.html

Dolphin-Friendly Mock Tuna Salad

* 1 15-oz can garbanzo beans ( chick peas )
* 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
* 1 carrot, grated (optional)
* 1 green onion, finely chopped
* 2 tsp. mayonnaise or mustard
* 1 tbsp sweet pickle relish
* 1/4 tsp. salt (optional)

Mash the garbanzo beans with a fork or potato masher.
Leave some chunks.
Add the sliced celery, grated carrot, chopped onion, mayonnaise and relish.
Add salt to taste.

I made them today and had with some crackers. I do love the chick peas, but it doesn’t even have pea flavor in it at all. :) Really tastes like tuna salad. I used mustard, and no mayo.

Oatmeal Cookies

I make a batch and have them with a glass of skim milk for breakfast. You can leave out the splenda if the banana is super ripe. Or add apple sauce with no sugar instead of banana. Mix the ingredients together and spoon by teaspoon into cookie sheet (sprayed with Pam) and cook 10-15 minutes in 350 degree preheated oven. (I don’t even use almond flavoring and it’s still very yummy)

1 cup uncooked (old fashioned) oatmeal

1/4 tsp salt

1 ripe mashed banana (the riper the better)

1 egg white (or 1/4 cup egg sub)

2 packets of Splenda

1 TBSP of cinnamon

1/4 tsp vanilla extract

1/8 tsp almond flavoring
