Tuna Cakes

[TheMilkMan]

2 cans of Tuna (i prefer albacore)
1/4 Seasoned Bread Crumbs
2 Large whole eggs
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 tbsp Ketchup

Drain the water from the Tuna and break it down as much as possible. Add the 2 eggs (already beaten) and the bread crumbs to the tuna and mix up until all ingredient are even dispersed throughout. Make the tuna mixture into 2 even hamburger type patties.

Add 1 tbsp of Olive Oil to a frying pan on Med/High heat. One at a time, brown the patties. Place the browned patties on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Put in the oven for ~10 minutes @ 350 degrees.

*you can substitute the 2 whole eggs for 4 egg whites, and the browning in Olive Oil in not necessary either... it only adds a little bit of crunch that I personally like

the way I just described... 806 calories, 29 grams of fat (almost all healthy fats from egg yolk and olive oil), 36 grams of carbs, 98 grams of protein

I eat this as one of my 2 carbs meals a day during hard cutting, 2-3x a week.

Fruit and Oat Scones
A morning staple in our house...

3 oz whole wheat flour
3 1/2 oz unbleached AP flour
1 5/8 oz oat flour
1/4 c sugar
1/2 t baking powder
1/4 t baking soda
1/4 t salt
1 stick cold butter
1/2 each oats, dried fruit, chopped nuts
1 t vanilla
1/2 c buttermilk
1 egg
1/4 c milk or cream
raw coarse sugar

Heat oven to 375f.

Mix flours, sugar, bp, bs and salt. Cut in cold butter, add oat, fruit and nuts. Add egg, vanilla, buttermilk, stir to combine.

Split dough in half, knead each half w/ flour. (It will probably be very sticky, so you'll want to add enough flour while kneading so you can handle the dough.) Shape into 1/2 to 1 inch thick disks, cut each into 6 pieces. Move to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Brush tops with milk or cream, sprinkle with sugar. (This is technically optional, though the texture really makes a difference.) Bake for 22 min.

NOTES

Any kind of fruit or nuts will work. I usually stick with the 1/2 c. oats, but will sometimes go as much as 1 c. on the others. My favorite right now is 1/2 c cashews, 1/2 golden raisins and 1/2 candied ginger. I've also had great success with cranberry-walnut and almond-blueberry. Anything goes. But make sure the fruit is dried. Fresh or frozen has too much moisture and they will fall apart.

It's a forgiving dough, so you can do other things with it. I did a batch with poppyseeds and dried lemon zest which worked well. They were glazed with a 2-1 mix of sugar and lemon juice. If you are avoiding the sugar, it's not the best way to go. But if you want to impress people.....

Last night's batch was for pasta. Dropped the sugar and vanilla out, added about 1 c shredded asiago cheese, plus a little more sprinkled on top. Worked very well.

Also, for those of you without buttermilk in the house (like me), you can sub out 1/2 milk with a couple of T lemon juice added. Works just as well.

It works well with can salmon also.
