Tuna balls with Quinoa quiche!
I had kind of decided to take a break from blogging, as I have been super busy lately and didn't really feel inspired to post anything. Until now!!! My mom had some recipe for healthy and easy food that I could eat. It sounds so weird but it was (meat balls) made of can tuna. Together with a quiche made with Quinoa as the buttom/dough.
Here is the recipe for the Tuna balls: (Makes 12 medium balls I ate 3 balls for dinner).
- 3 cans of tuna in water.
- 1 onion chopped.
- ½ chili chopped.
- 1 red pepper chopped.
- basil (I used fresh but I am sure you can use dried basil).
- 2 eggs.
- 3/4 dl. oatmeal.
- salt/pepper.
Mix it all with a fork and press them with your hands in to small balls. Pan them in a little bit of olive oil for about 2 min on each side. Or until golden.
Normal cheap can Tuna |
Fresh basil |
The Tuna balls are getting panned in olive oil |
The finish result so good!! |
Recipe for the quinoa quiches: (makes enough quiches for 6 people).
- 2 cups of cooked quinoa. (This is the crust of the quiches.)- ½ a chopped chili.
- 4 tomatoes chopped.
- 1 onion chopped.
- a little bit of Feta cheese. (You really don't need this but it just makes it a bit better.)
- 1 cup grated cheese
- 3 eggs.
- fresh basil.
- salt, pepper and nutmeg.
Mix all the ingredients (except the quinoa and grated cheese) in a bowl.
This is the quiches topping. All mixed together. |
It should look like this. |
I know this doesn't look good but just wait! |
Look at this. Ready for dinner? |
Tomorrow is weight day and I am so excited. I am expecting a really big loss this week.
That quiche look so good!! Thanks for the recipe. Might have to try it (if I can get hubby to eat it!!)
