mommies need to food, too

i don't know about other stay at home mommies, but sometimes, finding time to eat lunch is difficult. between getting the kids' lunches and cleaning up spills, washing dishes, and mediating arguments, lunch can often be non-existent. i'm all about quick lunches, but satisfying and healthy, too. yesterday, i came up with this for lunch

and it was delicious. simple and quick, just what a mommy needs to refuel. it's a tuna fish salad on romaine leaves and here's the recipe-

for the tuna fish salad- 

1 can of flaked tuna in water

1 1/2 tablespoons of mayo

1 can of corn- i use peaches and cream canned corn because i loathe celery in my tuna fish salad

1 tablespoon of sweet pickle relish

3 romaine leaves

optional- cheddar cheese, salt and pepper

drain the liquid from the tuna. combine the tuna, mayo, corn, and relish together. season with salt and pepper. spoon into the inside of each romaine leaf. if desired, add shredded cheddar cheese on top. enjoy!

*this recipe made enough for two servings. i ate the leftovers for lunch today.

until next post- maggie
