This Christmas is a first of many for me - it is our first Christmas as a married couple, first Christmas with our dog, first Christmas in our house, and MY first Christmas with a real live tree! Hubby insisted, and I agreed to try. Here it is:
Pretty proud of ourselves! I like it a whole lot :)! Going to pick out the tree was a lot of fun too and made for an adorable midweek date. Putting it up together required lots of patience on my end, but decorating it and dancing to our Christmas pandora station was so romantic. Maybe it's because our anniversary is so close (!!!!!).
Did you know that December and the holidays are a busy time of year for musicians? Things can get very hectic when you and your hubby are involved in multiple concerts, including two separate Messiahs! I think this year I have about 8 concerts total, including choir, school, and handbell choir performances, phew! Dinner plans and routines can get a little wonky.
So, I often resort to fast easy dinners. This meal is yummy, quick, and.... CHEAP. Canned tuna in all its glory. Hubby loves this one, and I do too!
Ingredients:
2 large cans of tuna (I prefer in water), drained
1 cup of Greek yogurt
1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
1 half cup of your favorite salsa
1/4 cup of green onion, chopped
I clove garlic, minced
Handful of cilantro, chopped
Juice of 1 lime
Pinch of cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
Tortillas
Olive oil
Chili powder
How to make them:
Pre heat the oven at 425.
Really simple. Open the tuna cans and drain them. Mix all of the ingredients together.
If you want them creamier or cheesier, add more yogurt and cheese. :)
Then, assemble the tortillas. Put about two heaping spoonfuls into the center of each tortilla and roll them up tight. I kinda fold them into squares. It should make about 6 or 7 tortillas depending on the size. Brush each wrap with olive oil, and sprinkle with chili powder.
Bake on a cookie sheet until they are golden brown and crispy.
Ooey gooey and a crunchy tortilla, and it really elevates the whole canned tuna thing. You could sub in shredded chicken if you can't stand canned tuna. We dip them in guacamole, but you could dip in salsa too!
Enjoy :)
